They stuck in your mind - as well as your user name. Since we know how close we are to these species, it makes sense that they'd play this down as much as possible - they only show happy ducklings cleaned with a little bit of Dawn. Thank you so much for the reminder - we must never forget and that's why I posted this article. It's slightly ahead of the actual anniversary, but I read this today and it brought it all back. I'm hoping that we see a lot more here on the actual anniversary. The effects will continue to be felt for years and we can never afford to forget.
