Anyone Live On England St?

I'm still holding out hope that for the sake of consistency the indigenous peoples of Argentina will rise up and commence renaming every town, plaza and street in the country, replacing the names, dates and language of their colonial invaders.

Does anyone remember when Estados Unidos was informally renamed Iraq back in 2003/4? Perhaps there are still some examples in existence.

I really do think sometimes we live in a country that has an average mentality age of 10.

Being back in the US, I can say that Argentina is not alone.

In some states, particularly those with high percentages of Republican teabaggers, 10 appears to be an average IQ.

Marvellous! Argentina is celebrating the dictatorship, Galtieri and Argentina's agression in 1982!

I guess insanity cannot be driven to greater heights - perhaps if Japan celebrated the Nanking Massacre and the attack on Pearl Harbor, Russia the war against Finland and the US arranged Hiroshima and Nagasaki carnivals?

Edit:
Another attempt to drive insanity to great heights: President Cristina Fernández de Kirchner announced that a Malvinas Museum is expected to be ready for its inauguration in June in the ex ESMA Navy Mechanics' School building. ESMA was the torture centre that was referred to as the "Auschwitz of Argentina". Agressive war combined with dictatorship and torture.

Actually, a tour of the ESMA is very worthwhile, but once is enough.

Once is all you get. Then it's a helicopter ride to the river.

Indeed, many people entered the ESMA only once.
The jail in Cordoba is worth a visit too (I started crying).

I went through the same experience there.

Yougurt, where are you hanging your hat these days?
