Just a troll coming in from the cold for a day or two. I am always amazed at how seriously some people allow themselves to be wound up by these oxygen thieves.

Suggest you compare the Richter and Skimleson profiles. Quite telling really.

I did but I think there may be a third man (or is that Harry Lemon standing under the street light?)

After all it's not that awful. Like the fella says, in Italy for 30 years under the Borgias they had warfare, terror, murder, and bloodshed, but they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci, and the Renaissance. In Switzerland they had brotherly love - they had 500 years of democracy and peace, and what did that produce? The cuckoo clock.

Probably one of the most famous lines in Cinema history........

Ah, that famous quote improvised by Orson Welles, so he tells us. It's very neat, exactly how an epigram should be ... but untrue, the inference being Swiss folk are boring and provincial, without imagination.

Lets see now: in no special order, Ursula Undress, sorry Andress, Auguste Piccard, Jacques Piccard, Paul Sauber, William Tell, H.R. Giger, Gottfried Kellor, Roger Federer, (ererer) Alfred Escher, Mario Botta, Johan Bernoulli, Annemarie Schwartzenbach, Henry Dunant founder of the Red Cross. Granted a few were not alive when Welles coined the phrase, but those who were created anything but cuckoo clocks.

You can keep Gnomeville and I will take Florence and Sienna any day. Switzerland. Boring as fcuk. Geneva is just plain scary.
