A critical creative look at issues of Economics, Politics and Finding a Purpose in Life - Let's talk about it. I try to leave the woodpile higher than I found it.
60 Minutes on CBS News: Nazi Archive Made Public - Documents of Nazi atrocities during the Holocaust were kept locked for decades. Now that the archive is being made public, Scott Pelley brought three Holocaust survivors to examine their records.
Gene, thank you for finding this report. I hope you don't mind if I post this on my Facebook, in honor of my father Zenon Krol, who was a Holocaust survivor. He was 13 when the war broke out, and was taken by the Germans, from Wroclaw, Poland, to a German farm where he was used as slave labor. He never saw his family again until 29 years later when a friend in Belgium helped him to locate them. Miraculously, all of them survived and in 1971 when I was 16 years old, our family was able to travel to Poland and meet our family there. This was the one and only time I ever saw my grandmother on my father's side of the family, and a very emotional experience for all of us. She went to church and prayed every day. Needless to say, it was divine providence that God spared my father's family, and divine intervention that I am able to speak to you about this today as a free American woman. I am the first born American on both sides of my family. My parents wanted a better life for us and trusted God to help them. God is good and we must NEVER ever forget. Blessings always, Cathy Geiger
