McCrorys?" Think of all those old store names that are no longer
there. I will confine myself to western Pennsylvania … Woolworths,
Gimbels, Kaufmans, Joseph Horne, Rosenbaums, Boggs and Buhl, Isalys.<BR>>
<BR>> Yup…. And you now have to be in your 40s to understand what
communism was like in eastern Europe. In a way, I guess I am rather
glad that I vacationed in East Germany before the wall came down and saw
it. I guess, as ugly as history can be, I guess it was also good for
me that I experienced the segregated southern states … black and white drinking
fountains, toilets, restaurants, etc. <BR>> <BR>> Now, how the hell
do I explain to my granddaughter and her husband, who is of African descent,
what it would have been like living in this country 60 or more years
ago? <BR>> <BR>> <BR>> On Apr 4, 2013, at 1:19 PM, Bob
