I miss the AOL CD's that I received all the time.....100 free hours / 250 free hours....etc etc.....( never paid for AOL....LOL...LOL...)....boing boing...( 56k noise ....connecting...connected )......you got mail...... But then again I remember .....NetZero.....
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.
