Dear well off Jewish Woman at the talk today:

[skull_bearer]

You do not, really not, absolutely not, NEVER FUCKING NOT have the right to criticise a Holocaust survivor when he tells you he does not believe in god. Or go into a rant about how the Jews are clearly the chosen people and how can he not admit the obvious truth yadda yadda yadda.

SERIOUSLY WHAT IS UP WITH THAT? I'VE MET NEO-NAZIS WHO'VE BEHAVED BETTER!

On a more unrelated note, when I first came in to the talk I was a bit puzzled because I couldn't see anyone who looked old enough to a Holcoaust survivor. Turned out the rather dapper bald man who I thought must have been around 40 was actually past 70. I was gobsmacked, I wished I asked him what his secret was.

I hope I look that good at 70.

I've got to know a chap that uses the same coffee shop as me- another dapper, grey haired little man, straight as a ramrod. I had him down as say 60. We got to talking and I found out he is an ex matelot served in the RN during WW2 and during the fifties and is actually 87 and still working as a carpenter!

I almost fell off my stool with surprise when I found out! :o)
