Ok, the answer involves creating a drupal view, so you will need the views module and although simple, the answer is lengthy. Please bear with me through this... :) (i am actually doing this on a test site as I write the instructions, to make sure I don't miss anything...).
Put in a Views Argument that uses the User ID from the URL argument. It will be arg(1). That should filter content that was authored by the profile you are looking at.
That can work for a block or content pane.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
