i'd like to locate the accurate german writing of the sign... google
translate can only handle part of it and i suspect because of missing
high-ascii characters replaced by low-ascii ones :?

i can't "reverse engineer" it because i don't know what the
english words would be (ie: Gefingerpoken, Mittengrabben, and others)...

i think it would make a nice addition to my random quotes file ;)
