I would guess that it boils down to the fact that Hans, despite a
staggeringly remarkable likeness in appearance, is not Superman.

But I, and others, share your pain.    The efforts of Hans and the regulars
on this group make up for it in large measure.  (BTW,  Thank You to all the
regulars) and the Wiki and Texshow-web have great potential to help ... if
they really catch fire.
