Brian,  I'm not surprised at your survey results.  I have a 19 yo son who
is just finishing his sophomore year at college and I'd be surprised if he
knew ANY of them.  They don't teach history with the same fervor they used
to.  Ruth

I had a 19 year old sophomore ask me in class today, "Who was Nelson
Mandela?" I was so shocked I must have made her feel like an idiot with my
reply that she should read up on him.
