<p style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;" class="MsoNormal">Luckily he cannot ignore the
European Charta for Minor Languages. I deem it quite stupid. As a matter of fact
Germany
has many local cultural varieties, and I cannot identify myself with a lot of
them. So I do not think I have much in common with Bavarians and certainly I
don not like Karneval as it is celebrated in f. ex. Cologne. That is no part of MY culture.<br>
Some years ago someone spoke of "deutsche Leitkultur" which was
nearly unbearable.<br>
I hope it is just part of the annual sommertheatre.<br>

Greetings,<br>
