I know its a fact, calling it a myth repeatedly is disingenuous of you.

I'd really like to know where from you get your info. :-) I know a lot of Germans, basically the vast majority of persons I know personally on this planet are German. I would have heared of this before, would it be true :-). So you must have made it up, or maybe it is from the national enquirer you just read? :D

Gee, I've got to go to my wardrobe now and check the purple stuff there. :D. What if the moths have eaten everything by now? For every 1 Mio € you need at least one pack of "Nexa Lotte" (Is this known in the US?)

logos,
Denial is a temporary cure for embarrassment.

Booooring!
I hoped you could do better :D. Come on this was a good start.

Tell the TA they can unload them on eBay.
