Faamecanic,
That spat was in april. If a thermonuclear explosion was going to occur, it would have happened already. I'm over it, that was 3 months ago, though i still think many people lose perspective on history after the umpteenth rerun of Das Boat.
Ironic how i'm working on my own uboat mod for SH4 now, and i have to say i winced when i put U-181's conning tower emblem as a selectable option. But then, i was never advocating the white washing of history, only the maintaining of perspective. A few too many people seem display that flag in a proud manner, much akin to how an American will display the US flag. The swaztika in that context will always get my goat.
