message: I will say, I am loathe to question anything on the main page of Wikipedia, but in the list of "on this day" suggestions, I find the omission of the Wounded Knee Massacre quite glaring.  In my understanding, that event is a kind of archetypal touchstone which represents to Native Americans, as metonymy, all the atrocities and injustices of the "Indian Wars."  Certainly this event is more deserving of mention than, say, Feynman's lecture.    — Preceding unsigned comment added by Lapisphil (talk • contribs) 00:47, 29 December 2010 (UTC)
