   Now that I think of it, yes.  Couldn't very well use the idea of   
   genocide, which is hardly German (didn't Hitler say, using a then-recent   
   example, "who remembers what the Turks did to the Armenians?")...   
      
   What I meant to say was that the various individuals of a culture differ   
   extremely during a given time, and that over time, a culture can change   
   radically; but that is platitudinous and boring.
