Hope all walls come down soon
Walls that keep people in , and also walls that keep people out .... walls made out of concrete and steel , and also walls made out of dots and dash lines on maps.

Can we drink to that , :toast:

8. "Nun werde jene Mauer fallen." 'Now every wall will fall.' - roughly. I saw that phrase
in a German news report painted on what was left of the rapidly disappearing Berlin Wall not long after I arrived in Germany.

What an amazing time. I miss that euphoria; not unlike the euphoria of Election Night 2008...
