You're welcome. One of the best I've read in a while!
The problem is in germany nobody reads this article because Die Welt is only the very small and a little bit more serious brother of die Bild Zeitung. It is more a sort of waste of money for the Springer Verlag because this paper archives only deficits since it was started. SO as a german i have to read US internet pages to read about this comment and when you look at the latest polls about this topic you know why nobody buys this paper.
