    That seems like a very dark and heavy coat to be wearing in July in Tennessee. He's not dressed like any of the other men involved in the Scopes Trial. Could certainly be that preacher TIME mentioned. Wonder if the woman behind him is with him...

    Note the Model T Ford in the background on the right.

    Penny, why do you add all these irrelevant tags to photos?
  • pennylrichardsca (now at ipernity) said:
    They're not irrelevant to me.
  • In Memoriam: budderflyman said:
    Well, sorry, that does not answer my question. They are irrelevant to this story and to the Smithsonian photostream. I mean, come on, the word "standing" as a tag? What if someone else wants "posing" and someone else wants "living" and some else wants "woman in the background"? These types of tags are wastes of space and time. They are meaningless. It is different if you personally are posting something. Then you can add whatever tags you want. But, this is a little different where thousands of people view these images. Like I said, what if everyone were to list whatever irrelevant tags they want? BTW, please tell me how the word "standing" as a tag is relevant to you? I am really curious.

    Darrow: The first day – was it a twenty-four hour day? Bryan: I do not know. Darrow: What do you think? Bryan: I do not think about things that I do not think about Darrow: Do you ever think about things you DO think about?

    Science vs. Creationism in 1925. The Bible thumpers will never accept scientific fact because they refuse to accept the fact the Bible is full of errors and discrepancies, that it was written for uneducated people, and that it was written by many writers in different times, translated and retranslated, books added and books discarded, etc, etc, etc. Sorry, even the Vatican accepted evolution by 1919.
