Time

A thought while reading about German book burning in classic Third Reich book ... they thought they were removing old ideas in order to replace them with new. Time as linear. Time also is circular, events repeating themselves. Perhaps a better notion is Time as layered, all moments existing at once, together.

Germans supported Hitler. Why? I remember a tense family gathering when I was a kid ... an uncle had brought home a German bride after the war ... at this gathering she defended Hitler, who had given folks jobs and their lives back ... needless to say this was not popular ... I remember a lot of shouting and crying ... my folks were only ones in clan who accepted the German woman after that (mom reluctantly)... took mom years to ride in my VW. WWII always a strong reality.
