Theodosia, could you link to the story? I can't find it anywhere.
Thanks.
Discussion of episodes currently airing in Un-American locations (anything that's aired in Australia is fair game), as well as anything else the Un-Americans feel like talking about or we feel like asking them. Please use the show discussion threads for any current-season discussion.

I remember it as being in the Boston Globe last year or the year before....
I dunno, it's been sixty years since the Pope was in the German army, and people still give him grief for that.
He wasn't in the German army, he was in the Hitler Youth, which was compulsory for young men at the time.
UnAmerican Buffistas: pedantic since 1999.
Wasn't he also conscripted in the last days of the War and deserted? Not that that's relevant..
Nice article about the Continuum 3 convention in Melbourne. [link]
Hah, jim, you're right, he was conscripted towards the end of the war. What a lousy pedant I am.
I think his girlfriend is very lucky. If only he had a better grasp of apostrophe use, I'd be tempted to fight her for him. Only I'd want to keep the speaker.
I'm going to be visiting my father in Bangor, Wales for two weeks, arriving this Sunday. I'm not sure if any Buffistas live near there, but if anyone would like a get-together, let me know! My profile address is fine (or you could just mention it here).
Have a lovely day.
