  1. This is wonderful- the image i mean; B.'s quote is good too.
    So many things happening in Germany in the 20s and early 30s. When the time machine is ready, i' ll ask to be taken there ;-)

  2. I'll go with you as long as we can ridiculise and eliminate Hitler when he launches his putsch in the Munich bierkeller in 1923. I'll get Hitler and you'll get Ludendorff.
