I showed this to several of my cow-orkers. (And no, that's not a typo. After today, they deserve that moniker.) While they understood that it was about Veteran's Day / Armistice Day, not *one* of them understood what "that red thing on the desk" was.
And only two of them had even heard of Flanders Field. Thank you,![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
