I dunno... having personally seen Auschwitz myself, I have a hard time understanding what else could've happened. I think part of the problem is it's hard to comprehend the scale of the atrocity, so you end up asking yourself "how could it have been that big?". I can certainly see why some people disbelieve it. 6 million does seem huge. But when you consider that these concentration camps could take tens of thousands of people per minute, it wouldn't really take long for them to reach a million, and then 6 million. But knowing that it's possible still doesn't help get your head round the simply mind boggling scale of it all...
