    A country survives if all people subscribe to a unifying myth. I just heard they put a shroud over Thomas Jefferson.

    This bodes poorly for our continued survival.

    The good old days are going to mean something to more than just the elderly.

    Think it would be worth the time to make an interactive map? Cursor over a building location and see a group of photo's of that spot?

    Example.... Click over the stadium location which would link to: https://panam1901.org/farm_implement...nts_design.htm




    cursor over Ethnology Building and see this...





    Incredible what was here in the past. Self serving politics is a horrible issue to have in a community.

He was a star, progressively, in minstrel shows, vaudeville, burlesque, the New York stage, and movies. At the same time under another name he was a well-known dairy farmer and agriculturist.
