Well, ok, some of you will have deleted this without reading...

For all Nisters-haters : Helmut lives and is very polite on the phone. I
have had an unexpected call from him last Thursday at my office, and he
really sounds like he writes mails. Anyway, he really is an existing
person. How could anyone one earth invent a Helmut Nisters? (Well, the
Marx Brothers probably...)

Anyway, I too sometimes smile when I see another of his pleading
messages, but is this a reason to start nagging someone ? He offered me
books for my library without me asking it. So, even when the books I
will receive are not really what I need in my library, it still is a
very neat gesture.

If you don't like Helmut, or if he sometimes gets to your nerves (you
get to my nerves too sometimes, Helmut...) just take your remote control
and zap away without making all the noise.

And Helmut : stop complaining, because that's the one thing most people
really can't stand...
