When I went to work today (9/11/2006), I saw the flag at half staff. I asked at the front desk, "Who died?" They said it's at half staff because of 9/11. I said, "But those people died five years ago."

Has the American flag ever been at half staff before due to an anniversary? How about the anniversaries of (a) Pearl Harbor; (b) President Kennedy's assassination; (c) President Lincoln's assassination; (d) Martin Luther King's assassination; (e) the sinking of the battleship Maine in Havana; (f) Christ's crucifixion; (g) the sinking of the Titanic; or (h) any other anniversary?

If all these answers are no, then what's different this time?

Tablets etc have been found containing the year of someone's reign eg twelfth year, the date eg 5th and the month of that year. We have then changed this somehow into a date relating to the modern calendar. How was this possible?

Their architectural feats rivaled those of the ancient Greeks, Romans, or Egyptians, and they did it all on their own. Does anyone know how much math and engineering they knew? Were they as far as Calculus?
