Me and Marse Robert

Our friend Dimitri over at Civil War Bookshelf posted a link to an extremely unusual quiz: “Which American Civil War General Are You?” Of course this is beyond odd, but I couldn’t be happier with my results. You can’t do any better than Robert E. Lee; although the ONLY traits that I have in common with him are the facts that I am also extremely religious, and my hair is starting to turn white (one hair at a time.) When you complete the exercise you are presented with a string of code that graphs your results. (I noticed that there aren’t too many Yankees at the top of my list.)

 

 You scored as Robert E. Lee, Honorable and courageous, you've made a career of winning great battles against overwhelming odds. You, um, might want to stay the heck out of Pennsylvania...

I scored out as Sherman.  Forrest, Longstreet, and Lee round out my top 4, so 3 out of 4 isn't too bad.
