"The fact that 80 Million people died and 50 Million were civilians means that extracting bizarre statistics and trying to make points 80 years later is simply a fickle statistician's historical retro-grief"

What a oddly conflicted sentiment (all the more so, for someone who has just bandied around those same statistics)? So anyone flagging up the historical sadness of, for example, the vast numbers of the poor that died in Victorian slums, the Cultural revolution, or more recently in the Ethiopian famines is guilty of "historical retro-grief".

Poor Santayana.....wasted on you eh?
