- I agree, why shouldn't people use their own language - BUT - this is an
- english language group. Germany has a de.etc.etc newsgroup hierarchy as have
- most languages by now I would have thought. Posting to such a wide spread
- group as this should be done in an international language, which English
- happens to be.

- Like paul@hsh.com wrote "Maybe if you re-posted in english, somebody could
- help." We can't help if we don't understand the question!
