Dead on.

What is mystifying to those of us who have been around Dean a while is that the Howlin' Howard of the past year bears no relation to the guy we thought we knew.

My feelings exactly. I have no clue who this guy is now. Except cocky and arrogant. The only consistent features.

History buff alert! WWII archive photos go online

[the site is evidenceincamera.co.uk. but it's not up yet]

More than five million aerial photographs of World War II are to be made publicly available on the internet.

The pictures will go online on Monday. Taken by the RAF, they were used by Allied commanders to help devise their strategy during the six-year conflict.

The pictures cover events such as D-Day, the Holocaust, and the sinking of the German battleship Bismarck.

The website has been created by the Aerial Reconnaissance Archives (TARA) at Keele University. Project leader Allan Williams said: "These images allow us to see the real war at first hand - as if we are RAF pilots."

"I was really moved by the photographs of the Nazi concentration camps and the D-Day landings. It's like a live action replay."

[The picture of Auschwitz available via this article, taken about a year before liberation, shows a white plume of smoke coming from the crematorium....:-( ]
