I'm going to print it later this week and will certainly watch those highlights. >An observation not directly related to the photo: The >ubiquitous American flag. I wonder how much respect >it shows when the flag is displayed this way. I'm not sure. As you will know, the guy who's flying the flag from his car undoubtedly considers himself to be a true patriot, who loves his country and his flag. If you asked him, he'd say that flying the flag on his race car is a sincere act of respect. And an expression of a certain kind of politics. >Will it be properly disposed of when it's shredded >after a few runs? Does anyone except Boy Scouts and soldiers understand the proper handling of the flag anymore? I've seen it hauled down at 4th of July celebrations and wadded up like yesterday's laundry. Daily I see it flying at night, unlit, over shopping malls.
