Sad reflection...
The other day one of our store reps came in to take our order and also to give us a calendar. Cool. As she was leaving she handed me the calendar and said it was pretty nice, as it featured many dates related to all kinds of things. So she flips open the calendar and she randomly reads off a few to me including one about Hitler coming to an end. Her comment was something like, Hitler, now who would care about that?
So I looked at her and said something like this, "Well I would, it was a very important event, and as a WWII historian, means even more to me." She looked back at me totally perplexed, and didn't say a thing as she walked out the door.
This was someone in her thirties.
