Thanks, Joseph.

To Reinhard:
Now that I know the meaning, I'll reply.

First, I am not bothered at all by posts in German or any other language.  I've
stated this several times in the past, and, in fact, in the last few days:

However, I am bothered by people who go to CTF then post on CCC about what a
foul place it is.  I simply don't understand it.  To me, the problem has such a
simple and obvious solution.

Best
Dan H.
