Sometimes you can find really good Civil War articles in some unlikely places...like this one:

What little I've so far read really looks intresting. Also has me wondering if this is the same guy I saw on one of the History Channel shows on Gettysburg talking about accoustic shadows and their effect on the battle. For get what the show was, think it might have been a Battlefield Detectives but I so unsure about it that I'm going to say not to quote me on it. All I remember is the guy talking about it placing an electronic "cricket" in or on a cannon and then moving about out in front of the thing to see about whether or not it would disappear and show if accoustic shadows could have played a major role in the battle. Gonna go back now and read some more of the article. Thanks for posting it, javal.

Really makes you look at today's battlefields in a different light.
