How the Blitz enhanced London's economy

What is the ratio of those killed by Germans in the Blitz, to those killed by "blue on blue" anti aircraft fire that missed it's targets and returned to earth. The results will surprise you...

Where is Tom Lehrer when we need him? (He put his lyrics in the public domain in 2022.)

WERNHER VON BRAUN

words & music by Tom Lehrer

Gather 'round while I sing you of Wernher von Braun A man whose allegiance Is ruled by expedience Call him a Nazi, he won't even frown "Nazi, Schmazi!" says Wernher von Braun.

Don't say that he's hypocritical Say rather that he's apolitical "Once the rockets are up, who cares where they come down? That's not my department!" says Wernher von Braun.

Some have harsh words for this man of renown But some think our attitude Should be one of gratitude Like the widows and cripples in old London town Who owe their large pensions to Wernher von Braun.

You too may be a big hero Once you've learned to count backwards to zero "In German, oder Englisch, I know how to count down Und I'm learning Chinese!" says Wernher von Braun.
