T.S. Eliot called April the cruelest month. If Eliot were alive today he might see things differently. August, according to the history books would appear to be a lot crueler than April. The roaring guns of August 1914 opened up the carnage that became World War I. The" Devils Pact" in August 1939 between the Nazi Germany's Joachim Von Ribbentrop and Communist Russia's Vyacheslav Molotov laid the groundwork for World War II.
