Merry Christmas all fellow subsimmers!

No harm done & apology accepted - hope you also read mine in the previous post
I have a fairly thick skin regarding Nazi-jokes, I know where I stand, so no big deal.
Happy Christmas to you, too! Btw: the state of Germany still owes me 1500 Euro in taxes, so if you need a job here... - remember: we also employ non-native speakers
And thanks for elaborating this issue a little deeper. To quote Monsieur Randomizer:

There is ignorance for ignorance's sake and there is ignorance because of cultural misunderstandings. So: yes, I think this is a fitting place here to resolve this - where else in the interwebs should we fight ignorance if not here?
