That is excellent. Built 3,500 years ago. Hat's off to those that made this happen. So good for Louisiana, the first. Read this in the newspaper :rolleyes:

Only 77 million a year. Mary sure can spend our money.

"The United State nominated Poverty Point to the list in 2013, but officials had feared that American nonpayment of dues to UNESCO could torpedo Poverty Point's chances. The U.S. stopped sending dues, about $77 million per year, in 2011 after the Palestinian Authority was admitted as a full member of the cultural agency. Landrieu has advocated for the U.S. to pay its World Heritage dues."

I didn't know about that, crying shame.

See, I knew my money was involved somehow, and I don't remember the memo.
