>>At the moment we have our "Frühlingsfest" here in Stuttgart. That's a famous fair here. But the prices are not the same as in 1990. I think, a litre of beer is now about 10 or 12 DM. Do you still have the "Bierkrug" :) ?

Excuse my intrusion Dragan. Heineken is something I avoid. Is it still number one in carcinogens? Spaten is my favorite German bier. My friends and brother in law from northern Germany (Nuess) give me a bad time about Spaten. They call it, “that water from the south”! :)
