Bernard.  What do you think my real name is? Adolph ?

I can assure you if a german born person tells you, the name is Schmidt,
there is about a 60million out of 80 million chance it is the right name.
Anybody who did not want to give the right name, would not be as
un-imaginationary as to call them self Schmidt. They probably use the name
of Meyer or Schickelgruber.

Regards, Horst (Meyer) Schmidt
