The Eternal Flame of Freedom now burns again at the corner of 20th Street North and Park Place as a result of the efforts of one man, some stamina and one well-timed phone call. The Birmingham News shared the story on their blog yesterday afternoon.
Incidentally, the monument will celebrate its 40th anniversary in 2009 on the same day that Bhamwiki will celebrate its 3rd year.
