"Der Ignorant missachtet die Belehrung.
Und wenn zur Dummheit sich noch Macht gesellt,
scheut er kein Mittel der Zerstörung."
The Ignorant disregards the instruction.
And if his stupidity is even joined by power
he does not shy away from any means of destruction.
Ivan Krylov (13 February 1769 – 21 November 1844)

Same Procedure as Every Year
If counted well the Germans today can/could watch Dinner for One (The 90th Birthday) 16 times at different times on various TV-channels, and apart from the original in various German dialects, inclusive Schwiizerdütsch (Swiss German). Very strange folks, the Germans. Well, judge for yourself.
Tiny tip-off: Be absolutely determined not to laugh.
