Recently I was practicing singing "Springtime for Hitler" from The Producers for karaoke. I was looking back through its history. Originally it was poorly received, partially because the horrors of WW2 were pretty fresh. In terms of dates, it would be about like someone making a comedy about the 2001-9-11 terrorist attacks, but of course with a death toll that was five orders of magnitude greater. I can only hope that we continue our winning streak of not having superpowers duking it out.
