Joerg, I think most of us do see your points, but its difficult to take
them seriously with the language you're using. It may merely be a
translation issue, but the words you use, while perhaps not being an
issue in German, are considered generally offensive and trollish in
English. Unfortunately a bad messenger tends to taint the message.
