You're the one missing the point here, Harry, and references to Godwin's Law
only serve to prove that.  Thomas didn't invoke Godwin's Law; rather, he
stated that Europeans are touchy about the very mention of the word "Nazi"
and therefore censor it and anyone who says it, regardless of context.
You're throwing in a bunch of Usenet foolishness to cover what he actually
said, and doing it in a rather condescending way to boot.
