  1. I wonder what American actor will take on the role of IBM's Thomas J Watson during WWII, befriending Hitler and from New York headquarters directing census efforts of identifying jews for coordinated genocide. And receiving a medal from the Third Reich. huffpost.com/entry/ibm-holocaust_b_1301691
