People <I>want</I> to understand the Holocaust, but the figures are just so overwhelming that you need that human face to put on it.<BR/><BR/>It's the human version of "can't see the trees for the forest."SpooWriterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12447251108954170474noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2757782055764628213.post-49313481673450530592008-04-13T05:03:00.000-07:002008-04-13T05:03:00.000-07:00Hello.
