Dear Historians,

I hate when people think I don’t know about things that happened before I was born. Just because I didn’t see it happen on CNN doesn’t mean I haven’t read about it.

Yesterday, we talked and read about an event that happened 15 years ago–long before any of you were born. Just because you didn’t live it doesn’t mean you aren’t responsible for knowing about it.

The past lives on and all of us must know it.

Sincerely,

Mr. Heimbuck
