Brandon,
Surely you jest. I was educated in Atlanta and never once heard the term "War of Northern Aggression" except as a joke. And that goes for you, too, Faldage
If I may be permitted a Helen-of-Troy aside: there's a statue of Sherman on a horse at the *south entrance to Central Park. Alongside him is a woman on foot (I don't think she is 'Winged Victory', but Helen will correct me if I'm wrong). Once, while I was guiding a group a tourists there, one of the women (from Georgia, yes) remarked: "Ain't that just like a Yankee! Making the lady walk!"
