Sorry for the lateness of this post but between my computer and time issues I didn't really have time to write it up.

I love the Baha'i temple: I was there a few years ago. It's truly a lovely building.

Never been to that battlefield, though I've been off that exit several times and been in the area. One day, I'll need to get there.

That's quite a tour! And I agree with you, that even though America has dark spots in its history, it has still been a very worthy experiment.

(such as Tecumseh and Tenskwatawa's bloody rise to power on the back of witch-hunts, their habit of accusing anyone who disagreed with them of witchcraft and executing them, and their Luddite stance).

Oh, but all Natives are lovey-dovey eco-warriors, don'tchaknow? *rolls eyes*

And I won't get started on the history thing, I'm quite pissed about it too, and I'm not even Native at all.

I'm not sure if I agree that America is a great experiment. We'll have to wait and see if it indeed improves or not, as it's really just begun, and may even fall prematurely.
