Yes, I love that speech, too. Although I teach 2nd grade now, I did teach 4th and 5th grade (special ed.) for 8 years. I was unaware, until you told me, that some parts weren't real. Another bit of misinformation being taught elsewhere is that the first Thanksgiving was in Plymouth, MA in 1620. It was actually held in Jamestown 1607 at Berkeley Hundred (called Berkeley Plantation now). But you knew that, didn't you
Wow. Someone in Richmond didn't know their geography, I see. I can understand you not wanting to figure out or correct the problem, as it might take Richmond forever to get it done if at all. Take care
