Jim is correct in that as these tangible "symbols" and
reminders are removed from public display (use) and
therefore the public conscienceness, the history goes
with it and of course the knowledge... and of course
the old adage forgetting history and comdemnation of
repeating it.. etc
Another list member also suggested the MVPA get
involved..
in fact I think ALL such organizations should be aware
of whats going on and thinking how they can help..
International contacts should be made.
cheers
