The Shoah Must Go On [Dan Collins]

Council agrees to renovate Auschwitz

Okay, I know that they’re trying to preserve it as a monument, but isnt’ there a better word than “renovate”?  It makes my flesh creep.

  1. I dunno.  “Preserve”, “rehabilitate”, and “spiff up” aren’t much better.

    Face it: it needs a lot of yard work. The grass hasn’t been cut in decades.

    (Yes, this is sarcastic.)

  3. Gray says:

    Ferchristsakes!  At least they didn’t say:  “Rejuvenate”!

  4. RiverCocytus says:

    It did make me cringe.

    Well, if we do get Eurabia I’m sure it will see a lot of use.

    You know, Islamonazi nostalgia and all.

  5. Terry Crane says:

    It was never fully disabled, wasn’t it? It was presumed Europe will never get this genocidal again. Well, presume again.

  6. Bleepless says:

    Fix.  Improve.  Restore. There really is no one word for “restore what’s falling apart.” Not in this case.

  7. harrison says:

    Spruce up, maybe?

  8. Pablo says:

    Kick it up!

    Bam!

  9. SteveG says:

    How about… remodel? Refurbish?

    Boy I’d hate to be the publicist for that job…..

  10. BJTexs says:

    I’d just go with “tidy up” and then hide from the press until the work was done.
