<p>Interesting as a social-historical document as well.</p>

<p>I heard a British officer say that one day the United States would learn the price of admiralty.</p>

<p>Really sad; dead before they have really lived.</p>

<p>Saddest thing I've seen in a while. Reminds me of my 19 y/o daughter's room. But she comes home from college to visit from time to time. </p>

<p>Fine work. The NY Times is the country's best venue for photography generally... the images are deeper than Pulitzer's thrills. Great editors.<br>

I hope we've rambled around into that slide show's related links: there's a lot more to see, just as strong.</p>

<p>Wow.<br>

What an interesting idea. It brings a sense of reality and humanity to the numbers we hear on the news.</p>

<p>Thomas, I had the same reaction, although in my case it is my 20 year old son who visits from college.</p>
