And I'm very glad you coming. And the best thing is things we do for people, they know we was in concentration camp, was a Holocaust, was everything, wanting it should not ever happen again. I don't care what they are, what kind of nationality, Jews or Gentiles or anything. Never happen again. There should be peace in the world and that's it.
