Of course I meant 1.200 meter (in Europe thats one thousand two hundred) but in the context only!

In a real test it will fail at about 10 - 30 meter already, at the trough hulls.
The whole coffin at maybe 50 - 70 meters.

Wellmer, when you leave a negative, sign it a least, don't be a coward.

He meant "leave" I think. He was hit by neg. points.
But I refilled that.

I think we are firmly in the "not so desirable" territory!



"For us anything that is part of the movement is welcome, and anything that is part of the resistance is "not desireable".
Therefore there are things that we embrace - and other things that we are not so happy with."
