Found this story on cnn.com and found it rather interesting. I guess we would have to redesign NC's quarter, NC license plates will no longer have "First in Flight" on them. There goes Dayton, Ohio's claim to fame. Of course I don't believe Connecticut's claim, but still an interesting read.

The little time/date stamp in the lower right corner of the picture clearly reads 1901.
