<HTML>Agree completely with you, Guss.

We all know who gunned sailors, both military and civilian, in the water. Hint: it wasn\'t the Germans, Italians or Japs. I don\'t mean to glorify those countries or their politics in those dark days, but let\'s keep our historical facts right. Movies like U-571 don\'t do anything for that. In my humble opinion they do the contrary. How many people out there now think that German submariners actually did gun survivors during WWII? More than before that accursed movie came out, I\'m sure.

I\'ve got an idea: seeing that videos have to be labeled for all sorts of things (bad lingo, nudity, sex) why don\'t they create a new category \'Historically Incorrect - For Entertainment Only\'? And warnings on the box (cigarette-style): \'Government warning: watching this fictational work of art may strongly colour your perception of historical events.\' \'Hollywood-fans die dumber.\'</HTML>
