Yeah, I think the attempted humor was the notion of
Germans as well-organized workaholics. But it is
actually the UK people who are that. They just hide it
by being relaxed and polite at the same time as
working. Well, hell - you know what Mr. Bush says:
"You can't fool everyone, but you can fool some, and
those are the ones you should focus on."
