RE: How do we remember 1918?

I love this!! What a great idea, and I love how you compare it to President Wilson's speech.

I agree it would be interesting to see how your analysis would change based on different resources -- my immediate thought is a newspaper, but I've also had trouble OCR-ing them. My other thought would be diaries, but I'm not sure how well those would act as a broad overview similar to the SOTU...

Thanks Charlie! That was my original goal--gather about 3 or 5 different sources that reflected on the entire year. I also considered using random front cover newspaper articles. Do we discuss the same topics? If so, do we use the same vocabulary?
