Not to beat a dying dog to death.... Just thought I'd mention I had a teacher in grammar school who was ancient then (I'm ancient now!). Anyway, in teaching history of that war she stated "no true Southerner refers to it as the Civil War but rather the War Between the States." I think if was a matter of heritage and pride. The word "civil" must have had a negative image to Southerners. I'm from Gaffney, btw, and have always remembered what that teacher said and correct myself when discussing the War. Don't give up. Enjoy the journey.
