Hi Wombat! With your surreal sense of humour I wouldn't have guessed that you were German (unless you just happen to live there now... ). Congratulations on transcending your national stereotype & kudos for being able to pull it all off in English which I believe is regarded as harder to learn as a foreign language than Mandarin Chinese. At last count, we apparently had 193 irregular verbs! :D Of course our moat protects us from the worst weather extremities experienced by mainland Europe, doubly so in my case since I live on a small island on the South Coast with its own little moat & pretty flat - I'm about 2.5m above sea level - & the whole thing is surrounded by hills, with the Isle of Wight to the south, so in effect we have our own micro-climate. Wind over tide is the main threat, although these requires an unusual combination to take effect. That said, there was a substantial storm overnight in the 1320's & the other islanders awoke to discover that an entire hamlet, complete with a church, called Southwood had been utterly obliterated by the sea with 100 or more souls lost. Rather poignantly, we still have a "Southwood Road", but it no longer goes anywhere. Do you have any of the usual German obsessions, e.g. cars, beer festivals & a general distrust of American governments, which would resonate with me also or are you strictly an audio geek? ;) Dave :) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Golden Earring's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=66646 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=106519 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
