Splendid idea, Kat. Too bad you had to use his initials, even.

While we're talking about murderous dictators, let's not forget Joseph Stalin, who systematically murdered over 30 million people by forced starvation. This doesn't even include the people sent to the gulags. This was BEFORE Hitler's final solution.

For those interested, the classic book on the Ukranian famine is "The Harvest of Sorrow."

The 20th was indeed a doleful century. Glad it's over. Hope we can make the 21st better.
