to the Super Bowl:
How effective would it have been to run the names of all of the soldiers killed since March 19,03?
Remember the SuperBowl after 9/11? When Bono sang and the names of the dead were scrolled behind him?
I think that would have been a lot more poignant than a giant foam rock and an actor in a space suit. :shrug:

1. And how ineffective it is to copy? |
|
I agree with you to a lil extent but this was the anniversery of the challenger explosion. I think That that is a worthwhile thing to commemerate. They also died for service to thier country.

3. I think people are aware of that...MrsGrumpy |

So we shouldnt acknowledge other great accomplishments or saddening sorrows on the date that they happened? They only have limited time during halftime?

4. Nope, I don't think they are aware of it at all. Not in these parts. |

Sorry. :hi:
We need to bring our troops home, and it's effectively been swept under the table. I don't see a tableux of the moon landing as an effective tribute to those who were lost in the Challenger break up either.
If Bush had had a hand in it...it would have been mars.
