I would like to add on to what Edwin has said. I had no idea that my comparison to air travel and the method of transportation of the holocaust would cause this outrage on behalf of our readers. I was trying to compare the cramped conditions of each, which Edwin was good enough to reword. I have a lot of respect for those who went through the holocaust, and would not want to turn their experiences into a punchline. I will be more careful with my illustrations in the future, and I would like to apologize for what has occurred.

Hi Llyod, covert, kimmis, sorry for the comparison. We’ve made amendments to the post, and would like to send out our deepest apologies to all who were offended by the statement. Just as there are many roads to Rome, so are there different ways to type a post, and this is where the individuality of writers shine through, but on behalf of Mark, we deeply regret for that grave error, and ensure that nothing like that slips through our editorial nets in the future.

Cheers, and hope to see you be a regular reader. Thanks for being with us all the while!

Your remark on the holocaust and boxcars is deeply offensive, and I would advise that you pull it immediately. The comparison is odious. As a regular reader I can tell you that I will not be back if it stays.
