    War is Hell

    William Sherman I think. I saw a documentary about the civil war some time ago and thought about how ironic it was for someone who advocated "scorched earth" tactics to tell people about how terrible war is. ;)

    And William Sherman was the Union general who scorched his way to Atlanta, GA. and beyond.

    Yay! American Civil War ain't exactly my area of expertise but a series of documentaries I saw some time ago really helped in that area.

    Here's my quote. "Politics is not an exact science ... but an art"
