There's not much left and you ain't really allowed to see it properly. Also it doesn't show the effect on life in DDR. Therefore it's not that interesting.

(...)


It is!

If you go to the Warschauer Straße (near the U-Bahn station) there's still a peace of Mauer over there. But you can only see the "Wessie" side of it. (at least, at the time I was there) For some reasons, the "Ossies" side was/is still closed.

But it's true about the way of life in East Berlin. It has completely disappeared. The only things you can see are some old appartment blocks they haven't destroyed yet.
But there's always the museum, and the old Checkpoint Charlie, now a museum.

O yes, before I forget, the answer is: In the front seat. (should you decide to visit the museum)
But I'm sorry, I forgot the question. ;)

Thanks btw.

I don't expect much of US media, you've all these conservative republicans ruled channels like CNN & FOX NEWS, that are, THE MOST POPULAR, and they censors a lot of things...

I think that if you work in a media channel, you have to be honest with your readers/watchers, but it seems that ethics doesn't matter anymore...

Ethics decide the news. But freedom of what you want to hear, that's another thing.

We all know that Americans are very patriotic. (and no, I'm not giving my opinon about it)
But this means that the censorship committy is censoring all news that is anti-American. (it happens the other way around as well btw. in some countries, good things of the US won't be shown either, because the country in question is against the US)

Well, when I went there it was that you weren't allowed to see anything at all... at least no interesting stuff. Come and talk to my grandma or my friends who lived in DDR. THAT'S interesting!

Bist du schon in CC-Museum gewesen? Dort wird am Ende der Rundleitung 'ne Frage gestellt. Es geht um diese Frage.

Checkpoit Charlie? We went past there with the bus, but we didn't visit :rolleyes: School trips suck...

Maybe Ernesto wants to go there when we go to Berlin together. I'll remember the answer then ;)
