Just reminded of the most disgusting scene shot on film: Mr Creosote exploding in THE MEANING OF LIFE. Even Quentin Tarantino agrees.

I remember learning in school about the concentration camps set up for ethnic Japanese people on the West Coast duing WWII. I wondered, how did people let their neighbors get taken away? What fever or mania had gripped the country? I don't wonder anymore.
