As I sit at my desk with computer, fax, and phone, I cannot escape seeing a small Confederate flag in my pencil holder. This faded icon of a time before internets and e-mail still sends a message as powerful as any in cyberspace. For almost fifty years, I have kept this flag on whatever desk I have used. I don't recall where or when I first found it, but it has been with me at least from my high school days
