New Moniker
I've taken the profile name no longer being used by an anonymous individual who was making some disparaging remarks regarding the City Council Here. "Brains for NA" will only be a profile name, no new blog attached to it, and will only be taken to direct readers to this blog. I hope it works.

I've added "The Delaware Civil War History Project" to the Civil War Links section in the right column. Prof. Led by Thomas J. Reed of the Widener University School of Law, it specializes in Delaware CW history, and other events in that area. I have also added "Civil War Gazette," and "Bull Runnings," by Harry Smeltzer, in the Civil War Blogs section. Read, enjoy, and participate!
