thanks Mainah Ayuh, pat 25 & neurolurker for the appreciation.
I just had to place this image even though I know that everything in this fleeting world will be forgotten tomorrow.

Thats very true gimper66. I've wanted to say something here and I really don't have a clue where it fits with GC's site policy. I will have a go anyway.

There were a number of private companies operating slave labor 'factories' inside the Auschwitz complex of extermination camps.
These companies are still operating today and under the same name in the case of a very large electronics company. I recently contacted the CEO of this company and asked him not to help an Indian billionaire build the World's largest coal mine in Australia.

So there it is? It's hard to forget what happened at Auschwitz when the same companies are still profiting by other peoples misery.
Note. They didn't realize it was a 'genocide' until after the fact. I rest my case.

I don't think this is the place to discuss it, but you are absolutely right.
