(In 2081, there are 213 amendments.) Nobody ever guesses the right number. (I reassure them that I had to look it up.) But what's sobering is how hard students struggle to remember what the amendments did. Women's voting rights are rarely mentioned.Sybelnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5777245334432005091.post-65008007310595343662009-08-28T20:59:22.837-07:002009-08-28T20:59:22.837-07:00Donna: Thanks for spreading the word.

I get goosebumps sometimes in historic places, as if I can feel the past. Okay, maybe that's too much information. ;)<br /><br />Melissa: It takes some poetic license, of course, as all films do, but much of it is true to history.Tricia J.
