This x1000...I've been to Germany and Berlin. I vividly remember commenting to my wife how little there actually was in terms of Nazi sites/symbolism. You know the history and the terrible atrocities and it felt "right" in how the Germans have handled their past. We left Berlin with an appreciation for how they decided to deal with their collective history.
