Achtung baby

On a slightly less depressing note, the German town of Lindau had a bit of an embarrassing situation when it went through its list of honourary citizens. It turns out that Adolf Hitler was still listed and had been since 1933. The city council's decision for the removal of Hitler from the list was unanimous. In a country so well known for its excellent administrative skills, it's funny that it took them no less than 60 years since the end of the war to go discover this slight oversight.
