Amar, what the heck do you know about German? You're Swiss! They don't speak German in Switzerland. Oh sure, they claim to, but I've been there, and that ain't German!

Or did you just learn it in school like I did?

Or Romansch, the fourth official language, but historically the first with the founding cantons.

(However kinky, your new avatar cracks me up, btw. Brings back memory of old British ads ("drinkapintamilkaday") with their "Pinta man". Is the New Age motto Drinkapintamilkagay?
