"You can't get good chinese takeout in China and cuban cigars are rationed in Cuba. That's all you need to know about communism." I remember during the fall of communism there was a PBS show (Nova?) called Baltic Requiem. It centered on the Baltic states and what happened during those times. A part of it included the hill of crosses. It was very interesting.

Interesting thing is, this isn't even a "hill." It's a "mound." And it would just be a mound if the Soviets hadn't bulldozed the crosses to begin with . . . .

Thank you for posting this. My parents told me the stories about how the Communists would level the hill and overnight the crosses were back up.
