Oh, now I get your point. You can be sort of inscrutible at times. I've said this before -- you're a wily old fella. ;-)

Thanks Gipper Gal!!

As usual I want MORE people to ponder the holocaust and its cause and its effect.

I had a close friend who hid in caves, fields and cellars in Hungary to survive the Nazis. He lost almost everybody in his family and he lost his youth. He was a terrific soul and a wonderful friend to me for many years.

His story and that of 2 Polish Catholic POWs who were in a nazi concentration camp after the fall of Warsaw... have touched my life deeply. I was just a young fellow when I met the 2 former POWs and they were still bearing the looks of the horrors they had experienced during WWII... when I met them at a farm in Pennsylvania right after the war.
