Going Off Course - Remember that great episode of the Mary Tyler Moore Show when Lou Grant leans across his office desk and says to the insanely effervescent flippy-haired Mary Richards, "You know what?

Thanks, Doug.
Dennis Jabs is now our hero, too....

* Before we see the evidence that Hitler wasn't a vegetarian, it's important to look at where the argument that he was comes from, because it's an argument that's rarely made honestly. People who insist that Hitler was a vegetarian usually just "heard it" somewhere, and immediately assumed it was true. And yet, if you tell them that Hitler wasn't actually a vegetarian, these same people who instantly believed in Hitler's vegetarianism without question, suddenly demand all manner of proof that he was not....
