Thanks, George. I'm sure that your follow through is appreciated by all of us that are involved in the various aspects of the Civil War.

It surely sounds as if MS means business when it comes to Civil War historical preservation. However, I still worry about the sites that the state doesn't know about. As I've stated before, there are pristine Civil War sites here in Lawrence County, AL of which the state is ignorant. I would be willing to bet that with a little research the folks in MS could find several that are about to be destroyed, even before they are identified. Remember that this Interstate will most likely be the last major one built in our respective states, and we must all do our homework now or forever hold our peace.

With regards and appreciation,
Hoyt
