@oaktonarcher,
All that info and not one word of how the lived. Funny how they only care who they are when they die? Such conviction for the 2000th, why no memorial for the other 1999?

@oaktonarcher,
Why wait, how come they didn't do it for 1999 or 1998 and so on and so forth. The number is only relevent to them. It is a milestone in there minds and only there mind. They use the rest that died as the filler. The only significance to me is it ended in a round number.

@oaktonarcher,
The only logical explanation I can come up with for that Drnaline is they wanted to wait for a solid # like 1000,2000,3000,4000 ect ect ect as well .But I definitely agree with you there it shouldnt just be a number.

@oaktonarcher,
Yes that is the only logical explanation but in doing so they are putting one life ahead of another. Or makeing one worth more, as a symbol which IMO is wrong.
