History - February 2007

here is the peom-
I was eighteen before I ate my fill.
We lived off cotton and the cow’s good will.
Somebody told us that Wall Street fell:
We were so poor, we couldn’t even tell.
Summer was wet and winter was dry,
and Momma was old at thirty-five.
The cotton was short and the weeds were tall,
and Mr. Roosevelt was gonna save us all.
Momma got sick, Daddy got down,
The county got the farm, and we moved to town.
Daddy got a job with the TVA,
bought a washing machine and a new Chevrolet.
Gone, gone, gone with the wind,
There ain’t nobody looking back again.

During the "American Revolution", there were two sides, the people who supported the Declaration of independenc(or the idea of freedom) and the ones that didn't (loyal to the brtish king). What were each side "called" patriots...militants...Tories...i dunno?? And what were there reasons or arguments for choosing that side? Or if you know of any books/websites i can use that could help me out?

Did the ancient Romans have the notion of an "address" as a way to locate a building within the city? Did the streets have names? How would a roman have described where in the city his house was located?

I don't know how accurate the depiction was of the US Naval fleet in the Hollywood movie, "Flags of Our Fathers", but if it was at least somewhat accurate, it would be absolutely staggering. The fleet surrounding Iwo-Jima appeared to be thousands of ships, including many battleships, cruisers, destroyers, etc. -- In other words, BIG ships. The amount of raw materials and manhours needed to build such a large number of BIG ships is almost unimaginable.

I'm wondering if anyone has some links citing exactly how many (and what type of) ships were around Iwo-Jima during its invasion in the latter years of WW2.

Also, I want to know what happened to all of these ships after WW2. Where did they all go? I can't imagine that they all stayed in commission. Were they salvaged for raw material? Sunk? What?

Any info and links would be appreciated. Thank you!
