Time to move on?

Bizarre item in the news:

Wachovia steps forward and apologizes that two of it's predecessor banks, now long defunct, owned slaves. Over 100 frigging years ago. For God's sake, there isn't a soul alive today that either was a slave or owned a slave in the United States - or ever had an account at one of those ancient banks. Get over it already.
