Welcome To Topix Too Forum

I too, have been to the General George Patton museum at Ft. Knox. In fact, I've been to Ft. Knox many times.

I'm afraid I was being facetious when I said the "Paul Patton Museum". Paul Patton, not to be confused with the good General George Patton, was Governor of Kentucky from 1995-2003. Patton did a lot of good for Kentucky IMHO. However, he met with a lot of controversy. One of the many things he did was attempt to promote tourism in Eastern Kentucky where he's from. Keep in mind, much of Eastern, KY is impoverished but his promotion of this controversial Museum became a sore point for many Kentuckians. As a result, a lot of people coined the museum the "Paul Patton Museum". The real name of the museum is the "Big Sandy Heritage Center". In order to fully understand the entire controversy, I'd have to give you a lengthy history lesson which I'm sure nobody is interested in reading. In fact, I'd venture a guess that most people haven't even read this far.

At any rate, I think the Big Sandy Heritage Center would be very interesting and I'll probably visit there some day and it will likely be before I visit the Ark.

Have a good day, people.

Lol, okay. Yes, I knew Patton was governor than. I liked him and he did try to boost tourism.  Enjoy your day.
