useless

Yes, I do think that painting is useless, especially this 'modern art' crap.
"Oh hey look, I can throw a bunch of random shapes on a canvas and sell it for a few hundred bucks!"

[Cyclops]

futile

(I think painting is rather like sword fighting: it once had a most practical application and generated a lot of attendant theory and "aura" but as technology superseded it,the opriginal reason for its existence is gone and we are left with the lovely tradition/s which seem a little odd and silly: still beautiful and worthwhile as a means of self discipline and expression though, and of course there is a willing market).

grossdeuschland (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infantry_Regiment_Gro%C3%9Fdeutschland)

it was an infantrt regiment in WW2-no I'm not pro nazi-I just happne to know about it :wall:

[Cyclops]

wehrmacht

The Grossdeutschland division is often described as Waffen SS, especially by Soviet historians, but was in fact German Army, not SS at all.

(I'm not a Nazi fanboy either, I've just played a few WW2 boardgames like K, TK, WiF and the Victory series)

Grossdeutschland and Kleindeutschland were also political alternatives in the establishment of the second Reich: basically the smaller (klein-) entity (ultimately constellated around Prussia) coalesced in 1866, but there was a bigger (grosse-) alternative aiming to encompass all the volksdeutsch: probably only an option available to the Hapsburgs in the 19th century, if they had triumphed over Prussia, France, nascent Italy, disobedient Hungary, the Otto-men, and the Romanovs.

The Anschluss was a clear pointer to Grossedeutschlandic aspirations for any student of history...also calling a unit Grossdeutschland was a bit of a give-away too

(...erm, I read a bit of 19th century German history too...)
