Amazing! I thought by that time (1973) knowledge of history was more
widespread... the commentator should have known that NOONE might have helped
back in 1906 (or the Chicago Fire for that matter, which I believe was
around the 1870's)!
You are pretty right, it is a naive(1) point, to say the least.
Anyway, how can we help *NOW*? I mean, from across the Ocean?
(1) I did not know how to write this word properly, so I have been using
"innocent" in this thread... ;-)
