 What does that have to do with Fidonet. Besides if I go to another country,
 nobody cares if I feel insulted by their habits. With peolple from all
 over the world living here, what will remain of our habits if we may not
 insult any of them. We do have to keep up with their habits being forced on
 us already. Where is the reciprocity? And where is the FTSC document that does
 not allow Zwarte Piet to be a member oft the FTSC.

 I know plenty of people who have Zwarte as firts name and Piet as family name.
