Nicholas Winton dies at 106.

Last night a man died. A man who would not let bureaucracy and inhumane regulations stand in his way of doing what was right. They say that the only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing. Nicolas Winton did something, and 669 people and their descendants owe this man their lives.
