hahahahaha ~ and i will have nightmares about your avatar ~ what the heck is that! (looks like someone's angry chewed gum).
i think history is so relevant (the past is never past says faulkner and i believe it) ~ but when people mess with it to the point of reinventing it and/or whitewashing and/or revising it, it loses the power to show us how we're just making the same mistakes all over again (and again and again).
in this way, we're doomed by our own cultural "sensitivity", i think.
