I'm definitely going to sleep better knowing Hitler didn't formulate the policy, only implement it. Wonderful. So Berry learned from Hitler who learned from the Romans who learned from ... c'mon, now! Let's not be picky! How about giving credit where credit is due. Share it with EVERYONE who continues to propagate lunacy and horror. Well, Hitler may not have originated the policy, but he sure as hell implemented it on a scale that is incomprehensible to rational beings. And the ultimate obscenity is that nothing seems to change! Some [you name it, you feed it] is always resurrecting those policies/methods/solutions. Shouldn't we be more concerned that someone always wants to do it?!! Ah, what's the point? Some crazy is always going to suggest it, with or without justification. Right, SJB? Sometimes I wonder which is the more difficult--defending against the terrorists or the people with *solutions*. -- Jeff Shore ..!ihnp4!drutx!druri!jhs "...and the smoke blotted out the noon day sun!"
