Kiddo, I'm a few years older than YOU, but don't have any "ancestors" who
were in concentration camps. Instead, I've talked DIRECTLY to those who
were there, even a couple of ex-soldiers who helped liberate one camp. Lots
of those centers for Holocaust remembrance here in Los Angeles. Cut out
this totally artificial-to-the-subject "ancestral insult" crap. The word
"nazi" (all lower case) has come to mean what Clint said in the American
language of TODAY.

I've also talked to them *directly*, Len. And to a person, they do not
accept the "modern" definition of the word -- and why should they? If you
had relatives that lived through it (and some that didn't) I strongly
suspect that you would feel differently.

My first wife was Reform Jew. All her older relatives made it out of
Germany via Denmark. I've talked with them at length at the time
and also with many others in the same situation. In the Fairfax area
of western Los Angeles. She died in late 1964, a cancer victim.

Are you now going to "lecture" me on the Holocaust of WW2? Are
you now going to assume some kind of superior moral attitude about
"ancestry" because you have such weak arguments on the retention
of morse code testing in an avocational hobby activity involving radio?

May your conscience be forever burdened by the souls of seven million
who died when you profess some kind of outrage in an argument over
code testing. That is a pathetically weak, petty connection you make.

There are several Centers for the Holocaust around the USA. I would
suggest you visit one and spend some time there and reflect on the
reality of that dreadful, terrible happening over half a century ago.

Yarmulke is optional during a visit. Carrying a code key during such a
visit isn't required.
