I'm all with you on this one Gunthar.  Since I am shy anyway, it is very
uncomfortable for me to be dragged out in the public eye.  Being called into
Court is especially hard for me because there I am the *only* one and I
cann't hide behind someone.  I could do with never having to go to Court
again.
