Connotation? I was simply inviting you to answer the question
yourself, since you had the relevant experience. For myself, as I
said, I'm not sure what going to the killing fields would add to my
thoughts on human nature beyond what I get from good photographs and
an active imagination, but that's purely hypothetical. I don't know
what you were reading into my question; at any rate, far from
disputing the point of _your_ going there, I was affirming its value
for me who never will, while asking what actually being there added to
your own thinking about mankind and its future. (Since you posed
the question, I assume it did add something?)
