Response to Oprah episode with Elie Wiesel

Now that we have read some background information about WWII and viewed Elie Wiesel on Oprah, I'd like you to post a response. What are some thoughts regarding the episode? What is something you found surprising or shocking? Is there anything Elie said that sticks out in your mind? Were there any images or photos that you found particularly powerful or moving? Lastly, what questions do you have about Elie, his story, the war, or the Holocaust before we start reading the novel, Night?
