I like Norwich and all, but this photo twinged me a bit - I miss Berlin a lot. I've thought of something: If you ask an American what they think of GWB, they are likely to say, "He's an idiot." If you ask a Brit what they think of GB, they will probably respond, "He's a halfwit." If you ask a German what they think of AM, they will give you a reasonable, thought-out answer. Sigh.
Also in my experience—in addition to being conversant in politics—every German I ever asked could give me directions anywhere thoroughly and beautifully.
