I hope you realize that this is in no way funny or amusing. I wouldn't
normally make a deal out of it, but what you just said is offensive
toward Thomas and you should apologize. Think before making such
comments please - I bet you've never met Thomas, for if you had you'd
know he's one of the nicest people around. That he is German should
have no bearing and such comments are outmoded and wrong.

Jon.
