thank you for your response; i appreciate a different point of view. i did look it up, with 2 opposing views surfacing. i will quote one, since you are familiar with the other: "His doctor, Theo Morrell noted his Parkinson's disease, severe gastric crises, skin lesions and violent mood swings as evidence that he had contracted syphilis - as well as 'sudden criminal behaviour, paranoia, grandiosity and mania, all of which changes show in cases of neuro-syphilis." medical news today. interesting. no body, no evidence. perhaps he was, simply, just evil.
