Such a brilliant reply !
Remember that Dutch song "Over de muur" (over the wall), that sings about birds crossing the Berlin wall in both directions depending on where bread is spread out over the ground at the time.
In the 80's a friend of mine took that song with him to a gethering of youth organisations in Eastern Germany (He as parts of the scouts, they as the FDJ). The kids translated this song to eachother and it became almost the anphem of the gethering as all kids recognized themselves so much in the song.
And I must say it was an excellently straight talking and humanistic song.
I always remembered that occurance as one of lifes little gems.
