In response to YOUR History posted by pink101:
When Bush speaks, a billion people hear his words.

When I speak, only a few hear me.

Add it up.

Yes, but those who hear you tell others, who tell others and so on. Like I said--word of mouth is powerful.
.
You're right, people don't know history, and those who do not learn the lessons of the past are doomed to repeat them.
.
But, not everyone finds history interesting. How do you propose to reach those who say, "Frankly, my dear, I don't give a damn"? Just telling them its important isn't going to open their ears.

peace and love,
Paper Turtle
