Godwin's Law: Using Hitler/Nazi References in an Argument or Debate

Saw a reference to Godwin's Law in a book I'm reading ("Robot Uprisings"). Below is the Wiki link. A fellow named Mike Godwin came up with it. The interesting thing is once you break out the Hitler/Nazi allusion you lose the argument. Good call.
