While waiting to be called into a doctors office recently, I picked up the January-February issue of the Smithsonian magazine. The lead article "THE SEARCH FOR JESUS" initially caught my attention, but after opening the magazine I noticed an article about unexploded ordnance in parts of Europe. It is a very interesting article. I think anyone with interest in World War II will enjoy this. Just a very short hint: When in the US, a person digs a foundation for a home, business, or pipe line without any thought of caution other that hitting underground utilities. Not in Europe. It is a very exhaustive undertaking to locate and clear any unexploded ordnance.

BTW: the receptionist GAVE me the magazine.
