< Night view. Standing here alone at night was a stark reminder of the past.>
Not as stark as some of the films I have seen taken shortly after the blast. The images on the grainy, flickering black-and-white film are literally burned into my memory--I'll never forget those images as long as I live. (I suspect that the flickering of the film was due to radiation exposure, so the films must have been shot within at most a few days or weeks after the blast.)
If memory, serves, these may have come from the series "The World at War"; one of the best documentary series about World War II ever produced.

Indeed Goose-Man. Reminders are everywhere in Hiroshima, and those flickering images too have stayed in my brain since I saw them as a kid myself. At the time of course, it was literally another world in another time. Just a place name...
Now of course it is something I have seen and felt - emotionally too. Me thinks every living soul should be made to stand in line and walk slowly past this place.

A sad testiment to man's inhumanity to man. It goes beyond nations and speaks directly of our self destructive nature...very sad but so damn important to remember this place...

If only certain things could be un-invented.
Nuclear weapons would head up the list, I expect.

This generation has the major flaw of not caring about the past evils and trials of man, we can't learn from our history if chose not to. I know far to many people who think Hiroshima, The Holocaust, the Gulags, Bosnia, Rawanda, and the Cold War (to name a few) are jokes and things to laugh about.
