The presentation on Auschwitz was well done. I do not think I ever quite realized the shear magnitude of that particular camp. I found it very interesting that 75% of the prisoners arriving there were sent to the gas chamber. This camp was obvious very efficient in carrying out the Final Solution.

In lecture this week, I was particularly amused by the Donald Duck cartoon. It is hard to believe that Disney was once so racy. I did not previously know that many Disney features were made for adult, though it does explain some of the jokes made in the cartoons.
