thanks for the response - I don't really expect much from Steemit for this kind of thing, more using it for focus whilst I put a blog site together for those who really are prepared to dig into this kind of thing. Yes I have German friends, the whole country seems to be slipping into that terribly dangerous place again, I suspect because of utterly inadequate processing of the last time, hence polarised knee-jerk without coming to terms with the underlying issue. I believe there is hope though, the pendulum is starting back, and there is much more potential exposure to the fuller picture this time. Thanks again, Db
