With all the talk of survival after death, and people (like James Van Praagh and Jonathan Edward), who claim the ability to contact the departed, I figure getting a line to the late german madman/dictator ought to be a pieceof cake! After all, consider this:  
-there are still MILLIONS of people alive today who were alive in the 1930’s  
-probably (in Germany and Austria), there are thousands of contemporarys of Hitler-maybe a few distant relatives as well!  
-I daresay that there are also a lot of people who knew him personally  
So, for those of who who believe this rubbish, how to I get a clear line to the great beyond?  
Consider what historians could learn from Hitler’s ghost:  
-the details of the infamous German’Russian pact of 1939  
-what Rudolf hess wasup to  
-did he and Eva Braun “get it on”?  
So, I issue a challenge: I will give $1000.00 check to ANYBODY on this boardwho will get me a direct line to ol Adolf!😃

WTF?

MPSIMS, thought this is almost too mundane and pointless for that.

There is no factual answer possible here, so I’ll close this thread. You can repost in MPSIMS if you really want to.
