I love history, and I love old homes.
HOWEVER, to claim there's a sudden loss of respect for history is strange to me. Those old houses were state-of-the-art when they were built. There were older models that they burned down simply for nails, they did not care for the older models, to claim that we lost that respect is just strange.
