and the "r" is pronounced like the "R" in Rajesh and not like the "r" in 
"ride" for example. But as we are talking about this kinda stuff; a question 
to Suresh R. which is on my mind everytime I read your email footer: Why the 
heck do you always write eMail "Sturmbannfuhrer"?! :-). If you mean the 
German word you have to write "Sturmbannf�hrer" or "Sturmbannfuehrer" (if you 
want to spell it right) if you don't want to copy and paste the character all 
the time (if you haven't got a german keyboard like I've got ;-)). This in no 
offense, just a correction. If you mean something different or this word 
exists in english (or any other language) I apologize for this stupidity!

regards from a German who tries (struggles hard) to speak and write proper 
German and English.

Tom
