Re: Germans.
Ok, so apart from: Opera, philosophy, the reformation, dead composers, holding back the Romans, VW's-Mercedes-BMW's, increased sales of beach towels in Spain, acute business sense, being the first to use jet fighters, infro-red vision and ballistic rockets.

Bratwurst/Oktoberfest - heard of the Munich Putsch? Autobahn - built to move armies across Germany and to train people to dig trenches. Von Braun - used London as a dartboard. :p |
