This Wednesday marks the 75th anniversary of Adolf Hitler and the Nazi Party taking power in Germany

A dark day in Germany's history but I feel it's time for Germany to move on and stop saying sorry. What happen is now history, the world has moved on.

Honoring Nazi victims as witnesses fade

Well many people outside Germany helped/agreed with the Nazis and their project, and the Germans were victims themselves of the Nazis ultimately so yes good point Steed. I also want to say that, yea, it can happen again and can happen elsewhere, though the form be different.

It WILL happen again. But like you say, the form and place will be different.

Huh. So it is. You know, yesterday was the 22nd anniversary since Space Shuttle Challenger blew up. I didn't see one program on it all day. I only found out when I stumbled onto a Dead or Alive? website (listing the names of famed people). A dark day for world history, indeed.

5th anniversary of the shuttle Columbia's fateful descent is coming up on February 1st. Time to retire those 1970s vintage museum pieces for something better.

History has a bad habit of Reapeating itself.
