Pablo, give your countrymen some credit! In 1642, the Spanish were very
proficent at annihilating ancient civilizations in the "New World". (The
British weren't too bad at it, either!)
And whenever I go to Florida, I wonder why they even bothered...
Sure, they killed off all of the natives with smallpox, but they ended
up introducing syphillis to Europe. So, if it's true that Hitler went
crazy due to syphillitic infection, then WW2 is all your fault. What can
I say, logic dictates that you be blamed.
All in jest,
jason.
