Thank God some countries are moving into the 21st century. The US is trying, kicking and screaming along the way, so maybe we'll get there too, before the end of the century.
That was a great move by MLB and Mariao has been a credit to the sport. I'm sure the Yankees will retire that number in his honor too, as well as out of respect for Jackie Robinson.
Other than cards with personal messages written inside or thank you notes for wedding or Christmas gifts, it has been a couple of years. I've had plenty of personal messages that were composed on a computer and then printed out, but few were the person actually took time to write it out himself. Since most have such bad handwritting, that may be a blessing.
I'm not sure they have to worry about this for the near future, but who is going to police the site and make certain nothing happens? It weems to me that it would be more expensive to transport people there to protect the artifacts than they're worth. If they are that important, then collect them and bring them back to the Smithsonian Museum for greater numbers of people to view.
I used to be a consistent donor, donated a few gallons in total, but then they suddenly no longer wanted my blood. Their loss. I wonder if anyone died because they didn't have my blood type, once I could no longer donate?

Change for many is a scary issue. Therefore, some people do whatever they can to maintain the status quo and hold on to whatever positive feelings they are attempting to cling to.
Great to finally see a country song addressing this issue. I bet a lot of the old timers are turning over in their graves though.
I'd love to hear a reaction from some of the current country stars.
