Your thoughts as always, are welcomed Hugh.    And while you are seeking 'truth', by exposing the mistakes of past leadership, (and I agree it should be known), you are missing something.   We are human beings, full of faults with a long history of mistakes.

Frankly it gets exhausting and debilitating to read nothing but negative comments, especially personal ones.    If you want a more peaceful and cooperative society, we to find forgiveness and resolutions in our public life.    You're a kind person Hugh, my guess is that you self criticize more than most.     Your personal gyroscope means you care about values, ethics, non-religious morality.    Those are great personal gifts, a life led with your eye's open.

I'm glad the men behind the names have been looked at.  But their good deeds should be just as closely examined, at least in terms of significance to our state.     Even their clear racism, which would roundly be criticized today, creates a lesson for all of us.
