Remember

As we draw close to Memorial Day, I thought I would offer a link to one of my posts from a year ago. Here. It occurred to me that our recollection of time can become distorted by other experiences.

In particular, we may think it is OK for a war in a distant land to last for a decade or more. Didn't World War II go on and on? Actually, it only lasted 3 years and eight months. It just seems like it lasted forever because we still see World War II movies.
