Well, he's German so that would hopefully be the case.

I think you're being a bit unfair. It does take a long time to create a sensible
argumentation in your own language and then translate to suit your own
standards. Hours isn't an exaggeration in my own experience. The latest post by

would demand a tremendous effort. It should be encouraged that persons capable
of writing in English should do so, but not if it's an extraordinary effort.
However, it's the posters own business how many readers he's aiming for and
noone elses.
