big day tomorrow. got to give a talk to a seminar regarding the response (or lack thereof) of the Catholic Church to the holocaust in the dark years 1942-43. Kind of a bleak subject. There's no real consensus in the scholarly world about whether the Vatican did enough or not. Very confusing stuff. Not looking forward to the Q & A. I think I know pretty much most of the main stuff, but this topic is still pretty inflammatory amongst modern academia.

oh well, just got to get through it, I guess.
