<br/>
I&#39;d really appreciate some input on the <br/>
following matters:<br/>
<br/>
District of Columbia<br/>
-<br/>
What was the rationale for making the area<br/>
diamond shaped, if any? And why is it not<br/>
a &quot;complete&quot; diamond? Was once Arlington<br/>
intended to be part of DC? Are the corners<br/>
marked? Any visits there from you brothers?<br/>
<br/>
Puerto Rico<br/>
-<br/>
What is the current status of Puerto Rico<br/>
with regard to the US? Are there reasons to<br/>
expect any change of status in the forseeable <br/>
future?<br/>
<br/>
American flag<br/>
-<br/>
I understand that the US flag has undergone<br/>
changes each time new states have entered the<br/>
union. Does anyone know of an Internet site<br/>
that shows all the variants? (Sorry is this<br/>
is off-topic, then please just disregard.)<br/>
