I would like to apologize to this list for the recent flame-war I was 
involved. For some obscure quotes in my exchanges with Tom, somebody may 
get the impression I'm a man with racial or economic prejudices. It is 
not the case at all.

The "go back to under the bridge" was not a reference to being poor, I 
meant Tom to stop trolling (in many fairy tales a troll would pop up 
from under a bridge and demand a fee to let somebody cross it).

The "we who, white-skin" was a reference to the following joke:

Zorro was riding with his faithful Indian companion Tonto, when he saw 
an army of Apaches painted to war.
- Apaches to the west, lets ride north - said Zorro.
Heading south with the enemy on their heels they found an army of 
hostile Mohicans.
- Hi Yo Silver, lets go south.
Riding south they found a steep cliff.
- Prepare to die, Tonto, we are trapped!
Tonto promptly replies:
- We who, white-skin?

This quote is often used meaning "I will not pick your fight".

Despite Brazilian I have whitish skin, I could not care less about 
anybody skin color and I would not assume you are blond just because you 
have a ".de" e-mail address.

Regards,
