“When I was in high school we covered the Holocaust extensively with zero ambiguity because a couple of our male teachers were WWII vets and one was a Polish Jew with the scarred remains of a tattoo on his forearm.”
Well, these people are off the scene or are very old. What will happen when they are gone? There are idiots who don’t know or think that we landed on the moon, and that was 25 years later and on TV.

Well, let's say that a Holocaust survivor was born in 1938, that would make him or her 75/76. Probably the youngest of them would be 70 now and the majority of them who talk to young folks are 75, 80 and above. Like the WWII generation, they are fading. B-( As to the Moon landings, you have to be over 40 at least to remember them so we have an entire generation of adults and so on who have never seen a man walk on the Moon.
