I can second such a sentiment myself - the written word, be it with bile or with incense - when mastered by a sharp or a "blunt" pen - is a marvel to behold.


As for irony - I find it one of the...

I have in fact rather taken a liking to your "ramblings", Ben. They have Geist/Spirit!

Perhaps just as well, Ben. It still is a complex and treacherous thread though.

Aber ich hoffe doch, daß Gott nicht mit den Motten ist. Oh, I forgot that such a thing is not allowed. Pardon me. Happy New Year, Gentlemen.

Knowledge is never neat indeed, my friend. They are ready to lynch me in the Imperial Germany & Austria-Hungary section of the forum now I believe - I tried to make a point that was utterly...

Thank you for posting, Pat. Just what I need to cheer myself up a bit now!:) Happy New Year!

Not particularly late yet, 00:43 / 12:43 AM my clock reads. But I will probably be going to bed soon.


Hochachtungsvoll,

Kenneth S-H.

My friend, I did not take it as reproach, rather I took it as welcome constructive criticism from one person to another - your intervention was most apt and I am most obliged.


Hochachtungsvoll,...

No need to explain, it is certainly the most natural to me also used in this way. Being from Norway gives me a very good intuitive understanding of German to begin with, I think you would be...

I agree with you, F-B! This is not my own translation - I shall change it soon.

I have not noticed any politicization before in this thread, did I miss something?



F-B, have you ever had a chance to speak with individuals directly involved with the making of caps during...

It exists in Norway still (I have used it several times when buying from a Norwegian dealer who the credit card processors won't associate themselves with because of his "peddling" of "Nazi...

I understand it as you have interpreted it yourself, Ben - postal labels and such are however not an area I have much insight into.

Excellent idea! The 12th Sturm of the 31st SS-Standarte would be more fitting for you HPL, if your last name happens to be Zinkl;)

I certainly second that, F-B. If I were to start such a venture at this point in time I would be way over my head! All in good time...:)

I can appreciate all that, my friend. It's easy for me to say what I just said above when I haven't even collected for two years yet. 10 years from now I may have done many things I would think...

You Sir, have a very similar approach to collection as I have. I have to this date not contemplated, not even entertained the thought of selling/trading one of my items - I just couldn't bear it...

Wise words F-B - I am shocked to see what kind of pack mentality is displayed at the 'lord of the flies forum' - to take the real history of these objects seriously is their least concern - to invent...
