It is very thought-provoking when one considers all that happened in that one year. I see what you mean about the "opposites" working at the same time, Kilgore. |

1931 - Hitler had become a best-selling author, with Mein Kampf selling over 50,000 copies, bringing him a nice income. The Nazi party also had fancy new headquarters in Munich, the Brown House. The Nazis were now the second largest party in Germany.
Alternate Realities - Heidi heidi heidi ho
A lot happened in 1931:
·Actors Robert Duvall, Charles Nelson Reilly and James Earl Jones are born within a remarkable 12 days of one another.
·Nevada legalizes gambling.
·Universal Studios releases the films "Frankenstein" and "Dracula".
·Thomas Edison dies of complications from diabetes. Coincidences, you say? Perhaps...
I don't understand why two different posts aim to equate Cab Calloway with a person and political movement which seeked to exterminate Calloway's entire race. Great song. It is a great song. I was just struck how on this small rock, a civilization was opening their eyes and ears to new possibilities and at the same point in time, brutes were trying to exterminate those possibilities. Just a thought. |

That was unprovoked personal abuse, and reflects worse on yourself than your target, who to his credit has reacted in a restrained way. Posters should be able to post song comments, however forthright, without being subject to personal attacks. This is a relatively civilised board, as Net fora go, and it would be nice to keep it that way. |
