If they will not commemorate then it is surely our obligation to do so.<br /><br />If the rest of the world wants to forget what happened, we will not.Mike L.https://www.blogger.com/profile/06450806807610560873noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6579213173749170024.post-44276567188295393942012-07-05T15:15:03.764-07:002012-07-05T15:15:03.764-07:00Mike to them it's called **SPORT**Mike to them it's called **SPORT**Shirl in Ozhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08145644692590907775noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6579213173749170024.post-4971540432654742662012-07-05T10:12:54.362-07:002012-07-05T10:12:54.362-07:00It remains heart-breaking.It remains heart-breaking.Mike L.https://www.blogger.com/profile/06450806807610560873noreply@blogger.com
