In the fallout, auto racing was presented a dilemma. <br /><br />I do wish Memorial Day AND Veterans Day, like New Year's Day, Independence Day, Thanksgiving, and Christmas, would return to their "traditional" dates of May 30th and November 11th. The 3-day weekend syndrome has diluted the meaning of these important days...the sacrifices that Memorial Day represents, especially, warrants the attention that comes with having a specific date set aside, just as the Fourth of July is--at least no one has suggested moving it to a 3-day weekend.....yet. The connection I felt with Memorial Day as a kid, with May 30th, and sitting at home glued to the radio, listening to Sid Collins, with the pre-race playing of Taps by the Purdue Marching Band is quite vivid. The Speedway still does right by Memorial Day, but the TV folks ruin it--if I can't be there, I long for a live feed to be able to see ALL of the pre-race festivities, culminating in the playing of Taps and all of the other things that make it such a special day and place.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6450081081175442608.post-34586448067739108162012-12-13T03:56:16.031-08:002012-12-13T03:56:16.031-08:00Art, your article was/is great; excellent subject ...Art, your article was/is great; excellent subject not often explored in any detail. But for a journalist with your experience, amateur or professional, some of your writing seemed more like someone who isn't comfortable with English grammar/structure. Perhaps you just didn't have time to proofread it thoroughly: like it was written at the track with little time to make a deadline. Perhaps I'm just a bit jealous that you're still writing and I'm not.

As for doing the double , Maybe Indy should run on Saturday with Monday as an alernate day in case of rain , or even just race on Monday , the travel days really aren't a big deal these days with cheap flights and just look how many go to Sunday races without having Monday for travel days.
