I am off to the one in Ottawa tonight to see my Great Uncles name

[PENATRATOR]

I am just getting ready to head out the door for Ottawa for this, I wonder what the logistics are, why could they not do this for everybody (South Africa, WWI and II, Korea, Peacekeeping and Afghan) 365 days a year?

It would be nice, except it would become just another piece of the background.
It needs to be kept special.
not suprising, 4:30am in Ottawa, i am the only one watching

I wont argue that Pen.
My point was if it on all the time, more and more people just wouldnt
see it, it would blend into the Ottawa background.

I think this was a great tribute, I had it on every minute I could;
being 6 - 9 hours ahead, I saw many times the front of the memorial empty.
middle of the night for Ottawa, fair enough.

Its a good start, to turn Rememberance Day into something more like a Week.
Hopefully some better ideas will pop up, like finding a way to run this during
the daytime.
Logistically, seems not more than a projector and a laptop.. and webcam too, please
