Rewriting history:

I've meant to mention the Miami Herald's Flashback series, an occasional look at a story that made the paper years ago, and how it affected the future or changed lives.

Last week, Luisa Yanez wrote about Jim Morrison's trial on exposure charges after a concert at the Coconut Grove Dinner Key Auditorium (now Convention Center) in 1969.

The story doesn't cover new ground but does a nice job of wrapping up the story and what happened to Morrison and the Doors after. I like the idea of doing this, there are so many old great stories that are worth reminding people about. Nice that two researchers -- Paul Hodges and Monika Leal -- get credit on the story, too.
