Hello Dmitri smiley - hug

I have your article A87850795 to sub-edit. It's pretty harrowing stuff smiley - sadface and I'm pleased to learn that some didn't lose their humanity through that awful time.

My first query: >>My stop watch dutifully registered it all. 50 minutes, 70 seconds – the diesel won't start!<< it's the 70 seconds I don't get...smiley - erm

Continuing my read-throughsmiley - run

I had a little input on that artwork, as we had to instruct the infidels on the difference between a cross and a crucifix, and tell them that Lutherans don't have confessionals...smiley - winkeye The result was spectacular, as always.

I just looked this up, fearing that I had made a transcription error. Nope. It says, '50 Minuten, 70 Sekunden...

AHA! I've found ANOTHER transcription. It reads, '50 Minuten, 70 Minuten...'

Now, THAT makes more sense.

Change it to '50 minutes, 70 minutes...' It's our best bet.

And thanks for noticing. I went into translator mode there. smiley - blush

That makes much more sensesmiley - ok

I wonder if there's a place for my A51607037 in your Entry, I know you don't mention the swastika but I could put it in the references tag. I have taught many people about the swastika's origins and hopefully in a few decades it will be fully reclaimed by peaceful religions.
