i learned some new bits of information from the presenters. I didn't realize that buchenwald held mostly political prisoners and thought that the zoo animals were a little odd-maybe just another mental game played on the prisoners.
i also learned that auschwitz was comprised of 3 sections built at different times that kept adding to its size. I been told that the camp was the size of overland park (for those of you from kansas city)

I too learned that there was a major distiction with where the prisoners of the Nazis were sent. The death camps were established to rid the particular inhabitants of the world whereas the concentration camps served as locations for the persons involved to counduct arduous labor. I was always under the impression that there was no such dichotomy.
