We have young people finishing school now who spend all days of their lives so far without the wall.

And some especially promising and potential geniuses amongst them did not even learn what it was.

My God where did you dig this one out? Titanic? By style, it could be that.

You know, when I was in berlin on vacation, every damned gift shop tried to sell me a piece of the berlin wall.

Now the thing has turned into a giant tourist attraction

The Berlin Wall was a good thing.
It kept us from them.

Yep, German post war history obviously doesn't exist in modern schools...I hardly know anyone who knows what the Berlin airlift was.
