I have never watched Black Hawk down, just knowing and remembering what happened. I think I have a easier time watching the wars of past Civil War, WWI, WWII, Korea, and even Vietnam since they are more like stories to me. I don't know why. But the conflicts that have happened since I became an adult I have a harder time with because I know in my mind and heart they are real. I hope that makes sense.

Reality is determined not by what scientists or anyone else says or believes but by what the evidence reveals to us.
