Very cool that you put it on your blog! Definitely send in those Tweets. The more history is promoted and encouraged the better in my opinion. Since you're a teacher John, do your students know about Twitter? Maybe your class can come up with a historical Tweet to submit based on what's being studied at the moment. And I love the Dalek Tweet. Caveman: @Fire Whoa...dude! Take care! Hi,
