NEW for 1/31: 7th continent; RR crossing; Fort Moore

GwinnettForum  |  Number 22.09  |  Jan. 31, 2023

COMING TO DULUTH IN MID-2024 will be a new railroad crossing and traffic light at Davenport Road. The current diagonal crossing at South Peachtree Street will be closed. It’s all being done at a cost of possibly $3 million to create a Quiet Zone from the Norfolk-Southern train whistles. For details, see Elliott Brack’s Perspective below. (GwinnettForum Graphic.)

Gwinnettian visits 7th continent, but wow!  It is an adventure

Part one of two articles

LAWRENCEVILLE, Ga.  |  It hit me when in Australia that I only had two more continents to go:  South America and Antarctica.  This was in 2019. So, I signed up to fly to Argentina, and boarded a Viking ship to Antarctica.

Nelson

But then Covid hit. It was 2022 before I could go, though I could not find a roommate. The day before I was to leave, when getting off  the stationary bike, the pedal caught my foot, and cut a pretty long gash in my right leg. Off I went to the hospital emergency room. It took eleven stitches to close it up. 

That night the plane took off for Buenos Aires.  On November 25, we flew to Ushuaia and boarded the Viking Polaris to head to the Drake Passage.  This is where the Atlantic meets the Pacific and some of the roughest seas in the world take place. The stabilizers on the Polaris kept the ship from reacting to the waves so it was a smooth ride, blue skies with a touch of cloud cover on the first day at sea.  That would not last long. By November 27, the weather had changed to cold with sleet and snow.  

Ready for adventure

The next morning we boarded the small Zodiac boats.  My right leg was swollen from my accident, so I had a size 14 boot on the right and a size 9 boot on my left leg.  

We made it to Damoy Hut, a summer cabin established by the British. There were many different birds and also penguins.  It is the only continent that I didn’t get to take pictures of wild flowers. 

We made it back to the Zodiac only to discover that the boat was frozen in place.  I lost my footing and slid down part of the way to the boat. It took about 45 minutes to chip us out of the dock and then we were on our way back to the ship.  We were the last group that got to visit Antarctica as the weather had turned.

It was while we were returning to Ushuaia that a rogue wave hit the Polaris about 11 p.m. on November 29.  I was in bed in my nightgown reading a book on my phone when I saw shards of glass and water flying across my room.  I remember thinking “I sure hope I don’t get sucked out to sea.”  The window was shattered, and the walls and ceilings buckled.  Everything came off of the walls while me and my mattress were slung against the hall entrance.

With black eye. ((Jo Ann is with a couple from Texas who were in the adjacent cabin.)

Soon someone told me to open the door. “I can’t, no shoes, glass all over the place including me.”  They broke down the door, put me in a wheelchair and wrapped me in about six blankets and took me to the infirmary. 

The doctor stitched my head and foot.  Spent the night in the infirmary until they could find me another room. There were four rooms that the windows were broken out, maybe 25 and 30 people affected. My room had its windows entirely blown out.

I had no clothes, but they found me clothes, for men, and much too large.  They gave me intimate apparel but for a smaller woman.  

After the ship’s doctors stitched my head and food, the next day we docked at Ushuaia. They gave us money and took us to a shopping mall to replace what we would need for the short term.

EEB PERSPECTIVE

Duluth  working on making railroad crossings a “Quiet Zone”

By Elliott Brack
Editor and Publisher, GwinnettForum

JAN. 31, 2023  |  Since Duluth was founded in 1876, year after year locomotives of the Southern Railway (today Norfolk-Southern) have been sounding their horns for safety at the crossings in the city, with the horns  sometimes  awakening newcomer residents.  However, those sleeping in Duluth may be spared the blaring horns, as the City of Duluth is undertaking to establish a “Quiet Zone” at the crossings.

f all goes as planned, Duluth could be quiet from train horns as early as mid-2024, depending on how long it takes to build a new crossing, and equipment arrival.

Under the Train Horn Rule  locomotive engineers must begin to sound train horns at least 15 seconds, and no more than 20 seconds, in advance of all public grade crossings.

Duluth maintains three railroad crossings, all within a half mile of each other. That gives the railroad engineers plenty of tooting time as they go through the city. The daytime horn signals are not the problem, as trains pass with people being used to them during the day.

However in recent years, Duluth, along with two other local railroad towns,  Suwanee and Norcross, has seen a proliferation of new housing units near the central downtowns, with many of the new residents complaining about the horns. (Somehow, many new homeowners apparently did not recognize that all three cities are bisected by the railroad tracks, and that horns, especially at night, would awaken them.)

Duluth’s crossings are at Brock Road, at Georgia Highway 120, and at South Peachtree Street.

Margie Pozin, Duluth city engineer, says that the city is working closely with the railroad to eliminate the South Peachtree Street crossing. Then it will make Davenport Road a crossing. From downtown, Main Street traffic southbound will continue two more blocks past South Peachtree St. to Davenport Road, to gain the new crossing. A full traffic signal will be at Davenport Road and Buford Highway.

She says: “The city has been discussing this for 15 years. As housing developed in the downtown area, the city wanted to make a quiet rail zone for our citizens. We are working with the Federal Railroad Administration and the railroad so we can have Quiet Zone safety in the crossings.”

But Ms. Pozin adds: “This doesn’t mean the rail engineer won’t blow his horn if he sees an emergency ahead.”

The city is contracting with Norfolk-Southern to do work at all three intersections. The contract with Norfolk-Southern for the Davenport Road crossing alone is $1.5 million. The new intersection and the other two crossings must have a full complement of fail-safe elements, including safety gates, street markings, flashing light and circuitry to trigger all the equipment. The railroad is responsible for  the design of the crossings and equipment, with all this paid by the city.

The total cost may approach $3 million. That could be reduced significantly, by $750,000, if the current traffic signals and gates at the Georgia Highway 120 crossing are considered adequate by the railroad. This crossing may keep its two gates, if the railroad feels the equipment is sufficient. The raised road medians at this crossing could nullify the need for quad gates.

The Brock Road crossing will have four gates, two on each side of the tracks.  

Another rail crossing, for the Southeastern Rail Museum, is a private crossing and not maintained by the city.  Trains will still have to blow their horns for this crossing.

Meanwhile, city officials in Norcross have been in talks with Duluth to understand what is happening at Duluth’s crossing.

So be patient, downtown Duluth residents: your rail crossing could be mighty quiet eventually.

ANOTHER VIEW

Newly-named Fort Moore co-namesake pens inspiring message

By Tom Fort

SNELLVILLE, Ga.  |  On Fort Benning’s renaming to Fort Moore: Being from Columbus, I know how important the army post is to that section of Georgia. And I cannot imagine a more deserving two individuals for the honor than Lt. Gen. Harold Moore and his wife,  Julia. 

Fort

But as a fiscal conservative, I’m somewhat dismayed at the amount of money the government is to spend to erase every aspect of Henry Benning by December 31 from 182,000 acres. The post is in three counties, two in Georgia, and one in Alabama. Are those counties and cities on the hook for replacing all the street signs and subdivisions with Benning in the names or directions? Then businesses and churches – while they are not forced to change their names (“Benning Auto Parts”, etc.) –if they don’t, will be “canceled” by the “woke”?

Lt. Gen. Hal Moore wrote this in 2001: 

“I am living the last years of my life—having the privilege of believing in and fighting alongside America’s youth many years ago. The preciousness and value of each life is the highest and best investment we can make in humanity, and there is no better place than America to love and honor future leaders who believe and hope in themselves.

Gen. Moore

“In a previous generation, I trained and fought next to 18- to 21-year-old troopers who laid down their lives so that others may live. Do not tell me that you do not understand or do not have enough experience to make sacrifices. How much experience is necessary to say ‘yes’ when called upon to serve and love one’s nation? Great courage and bravery is often packaged in the youngest of bodies. 

“As I look into your youthful eyes, I am reminded of the eyes of my young troopers I led in 1965 in the first major battle of the Vietnam War. Before we departed U.S. soil for enemy territory, I spoke these words from my heart to my men. It was a different time and a different Army, but I believe this message still applies today. So, dear America, I repeat these words today to the young heart of a new generation:

Julia Moore

“Look around you. In the 7th Cavalry we have a captain from the Ukraine, another from Puerto Rico and we have Japanese, Chinese, Blacks, Hispanics, Cherokee Indians, Jews and Gentiles—all Americans.  Now, here in the States some men in this unit may experience discrimination because of race or creed. But for you and me now, all that is gone. 

“We’re moving into the valley of the shadow of death, where you will watch the back of the man next to you, as he will watch yours, and you won’t care what color he is or by what name he calls God. Let us understand the situation. We’re going into battle against a tough and determined enemy. I can’t promise you that I will bring you all home alive, but this I swear: When we go into battle, I will be the first one to set foot on the field, and I will be the last to step off.  And I will leave no one behind.  Dead or alive, we will come home together. So help me God.”

For brevity, this comment ends here.  The rest is so inspiring that I ask you go here to read his thoughtful and inspiring message.

FEEDBACK

Feeling the weight of our world’s history of anti-semitism

Editor, the Forum: 

On this day of Holocaust Remembrance, I felt the weight of our world’s history of anti-semitism.  

Hatred toward Jews has a long history. Jews were a target of Romans, Christians, and Muslims throughout European history. Millions of Jews died from hatred of Jews even before the Holocaust.  

Today we are faced with the continuation of this insidious discrimination. I ask the ultimate question of “why?” In my opinion there are three causes of anti semitism; religion, nationalism, and stupidity.  

Early Christians including Martin Luther had targeted jews as the killer of Christ.  This morphed into nations excluding jews as citizens and in many cases created laws that encouraged the killing of jews. Now, as a result of this terrible history we have millions of people still seeking to target jews. They continue to believe in destructive attitudes toward jews. Not only do they have antisemitic beliefs, but some people act on their thinking and actively speak ill of jews and encourage violence.  

I use the word “stupid” to describe people who, in spite of the teaching of toleration by church and state, continue to hold such bitter, destructive thoughts.  So I say that most of these people are not evil.  They are just plain “stupid.”

Only allow women to vote in abortion legislation

Editor, the Forum: 

Here is my take on any limitations on abortion bills.  

First, only women should be allowed to vote on any bill since they are definitely the one totally involved in the decision.  Except, if the father thinks he should have a say and be allowed to vote, then he should state that he will pay child support or be jailed for not doing so, and should take a DNA test showing he is the father or was the father, then he could vote.  

There are too many fathers creating children then running away from their obligation. The mother stuck with raising a child they did not plan to have.  

Otherwise, only women in child bearing age should be allowed to vote on the bill.  If politicians who want to abolish abortions vote for such bills, they should be willing to pay for the medical care and adoption fees of the forthcoming child at their own expense or for their tax paying constituents.  Probably heresy in the Bible Belt, but that is my viewpoint.

– Man’s Name Withheld 

(Editor’s note: We don’t like to withhold names, but found this an unique thought, and  an unusually special case—eeb).

Enjoyed several items from the most recent edition

Editor, the Forum: 

The article by John Titus about Monticello was excellent and informative. It illustrates how the action of one person can provide  benefits for generations to come.  

On another subject, it’s  unlikely that the classified documents in either party’s possession were “planted.” Nothing has been said to suggest that; however, expect a good bit of speculation from both parties regarding various circumstances.  

I appreciate and want to recognize your primer on the weather and how the plants and flowers are affected by the cold snap we’ve just experienced. Keep up the good work.

Lessons in Chemistry by Bonnie Garmus

From Susan McBrayer, Sugar Hill: Girls in science? Never! It was the 1960s. The science industry was particularly rife with severe and massive gender bias. So when Elizabeth Zott tries to forge a career in chemistry during this unenlightened period, she is ignored, abused, ridiculed, stolen from, lied to and not taken at all seriously. Fortunately, Elizabeth has a brain, guts and determination. That doesn’t help her while she’s in college where she was discriminated against and even raped by a professor. But it does help her when she’s cast in a TV cooking show which she immediately turns into a chemistry lesson to empower women. Despite the story’s painful beginning, it is witty and smart and uplifting. And at the end, you may want to shout, ‘Hooray!’ Every woman under 50 should read this to understand how things used to be. I think every man should read it, too, but that probably won’t happen.

McElreath estate funds used to buy home for Atlanta History Center

Walter McElreath was an Atlanta-based attorney, banking executive, legislator, and the founding president of the Atlanta Historical Society (today the Atlanta History Center). McElreath played a significant role in the city’s cultural and business life throughout the first half of the 20th century.

Walter McElreath was born to William A. McElreath and Matilda Jane McEachern on July 17, 1867, in Cobb County. He worked on his father’s farm throughout his youth. McElreath taught for several years at schools in Cherokee County and Cobb County before enrolling at Washington and Lee University, where he would study until 1892. He then returned to Cobb County and resumed teaching. During this period, he also studied law with R.N. Holland, gaining admission to the Georgia bar in late 1894.

In 1895 McElreath moved to Atlanta and began practicing law; he married his first wife, Bessie Anderson, the following year and after her death wed Mildred Dickey in 1938. He became a director of the Southern Industrial Aid Society—which would later become the Life Insurance Company of Georgia—in 1897 and served as its chief counsel until his death. 

McElreath built a strong reputation across the state as a civil practitioner before winning an election in 1908 to become one of Fulton County’s representatives to the Georgia General Assembly. He served two terms as a Democrat in the Georgia House of Representatives, becoming chairman of the powerful Appropriations Committee. In 1912 he published A Treatise on the Constitution of Georgia, which traced the evolution of Georgia’s state constitution.

In addition to practicing law, McElreath worked to establish local savings and capital institutions in Georgia. In 1928 McElreath and nine friends formed the Atlanta Building and Loan Association, which allowed members to obtain capital for real estate improvements without relying on northern-based firms.

McElreath became president of the small group in 1931 and guided it through the Great Depression, even as other similar banking organizations folded. It emerged from the 1930s as the Atlanta Federal Savings and Loan Association. His obituary in the Atlanta Constitution, which ran on December 7, 1951, identified him as “one of the leaders responsible for the business growth of Atlanta” and credited him for “keeping local capital ‘at home’ in Georgia.”

McElreath was a dedicated member of Atlanta’s civic society and a prominent advocate for the arts and humanities. His most ardent passion though was for local history and the Atlanta Historical Society.

Along with 13 of Atlanta’s other prominent citizens, McElreath founded the Atlanta Historical Society (now the Atlanta History Center) in 1926. As the society’s first president, he oversaw its early development, helping the organization purchase a home in 1946 to house its growing offices and collections. When he died in 1951, McElreath left nearly his entire estate—including approximately $5,000,000 in Life Insurance Company of Georgia stock—to the society.

Today the Atlanta History Center stands as McElreath’s most durable legacy. After his death, the organization used the funds from his estate to purchase the Edward Inman property where today stands a large museum building; a research center, known as McElreath Hall; Inman’s mansion, the Swan House; as well as other historic structures and gardens.

MYSTERY PHOTO

Massive, ornate structure is today’s mystery 

Today’s mystery is a rather ornate structure with water features. Figure out where this photograph was made, and send your answers to elliott@brack.net and include where you live. 

George Graf of Palmyra, Va., told us this about the Mystery: “It is the United States Naval Academy Columbarium in Annapolis, Md. Located on a peninsula overlooking the Severn River and College Creek, the United States Naval Academy Cemetery and Columbarium is the final resting place for hundreds of the nation’s veterans, many of whom gave their lives in service to their country.  In 1987, the Naval Academy constructed a Columbarium adjacent to the Cemetery on College Creek. The Columbarium was built by the Naval Academy Alumni Association with $500,000 in gifts from alumni and friends of the Academy.  The Columbarium is approximately 160 feet long and six feet high on a three-tiered pedestal. All exterior surfaces are white marble.  The Columbarium offers resting places for those who wish to be inurned at the Naval Academy.  From decorated admirals to mess stewards to blacksmiths to infants, the Cemetery and Columbarium hold the remains of a diverse array of individuals.”

Stone Mountain’s Ross Lenhart sent in the previous photo, which few spotted.  He has a brother, Mark, Class of 1958, interred there. 

Others recognizing the photo include Jay Altman, Columbia, S.C.; Lou Camerio, Lilburn; and Susan McBrayer, Sugar Hill.
