Perhaps, but oft repeated by Berliners to Americans as well. That is
where I first learned of the translation snafu. 

As an aside, if you are ever in Berlin, there are many amazing sites to
see both historic and current. For the animal lovers and architectural
aficionados on the list, the Berlin Zoo is well worth the trip.

And a pretty good industry selling such items to Americans (recognizing the 
mistake in that also) and other tourists. I have an Ich bin ein Berliner 
doughnut key-chain a friend purchased in Berlin. She stated that there were 
several places that sold such memorabilia in Berlin- including coffee mugs, 
t-shirts, key-chains, etc.. So it is an interesting twist on their affection 
for JFK that they are willing to make a few bucks on misinformed US citizens- 
one way or another. (Though several German friends just think the whole thing 
is, About as silly as we get!).

Hi Tim,

I'm sure this is true. Nonetheless, no bucks involved but rather just
conversations with friends and historians who live there. Probably just
depends on who you ask.
