I am sorry to have to tell you that your last sentence (the res=

Something apparently was lost in your above message. In any event I
am still at a loss what prompted you to ask the question, since, as
far as I can see, I posted nothing negative.

** Correct.

I have always used a
pseudonym here, and nobody, including you, has ever said anything
about it before; so why are you suggesting something underhanded now?
Was there something in the post that offended you? I certainly cannot
imagine what it was.

** Your version differs from others. I have found that those who do not
try to conceal their identity are somewhat more truthful than those who
hide it. .

This is getting very weird. My version differed in only one detail
(the story of the king and the people wearing the star). You actually
accuse me of dishonesty based on nothing - no motivation, no evidence,
nothing at all to be gained - and there is nothing in my posting
history to indicate dishonesty. Lots of people use pseodonyms when
posting; are they all dishonest just for that reason?

In answer to your question, however, I use a psedonym and a free email
address for the simple reason that I do not want to be harrassed by
the lunatics who post here.

** One's real name has nothing to do with junk e-mail,

Nor did I say that. Email is not the only way I can be reached.

When I first started posting I used my
regular email address, and, as a result, I received so much junk (10's
of thousands of emails) that I had to get another address to use for
my friends and (at that time) my customers. It actually cost me some
very good orders that went to others during the confusion. I am not
"dodging" anything except unwanted mail. I am confused by your
question, and I am trying not to be offended; but the least you could
do was to explain what prompted your question.

** I was fishing.- Skjul tekst i anførselstegn -

You were wrong and you were insulting without any reasonable cause.

Most of my history books are, unfortunately, in Danish, but here is a
quote from a book about our Queen:

In the book "Queen in Denmark" (translated into English) by Anne
Wolden-Ræthinge the Danish Queen Margrethe II says about the
legend:"It is a beautiful and symbolic story, but it is not true. The
myth about the King wearing the star of David ... I can imagine that
this could have originated from a typical remark by a Copenhagen
errand boy on his bicycle: 'If they try to enforce the yellow star
here, the King will be the first to wear it!' To me, the truth is an
even greater honor for our country than the myth."
(end of quote)

That and other information can be found at http://isurvived.org/Frameset_Rescuers/-DanishJews.html

For example this quote:

The legend says that when the Germans ordered Jews in occupied Denmark
to identify themselves by wearing armbands with yellow stars, King
Christian X of Denmark and non-Jewish Danes thwarted the order by
donning the armbands themselves. A popular version of the legend has
King Christian sporting an armband as he makes his daily morning
horseback ride through the streets of Copenhagen, explaining to
citizens that he wears the Star of David as a demonstration of the
principal that all Danes are equal. And non-Jewish Danes respond to
their king's example by wearing the armband as well, thus preventing
the Germans from identifying Jewish citizens and rendering the order
ineffective.

Although the Danes did undertake heroic efforts to shelter their Jews
and help them escape from the Nazis, there is no real-life example of
the actions described by this legend. Danish citizens never wore the
yellow badge, nor did King Christian ever threaten to don it himself.
In fact, Danish Jews never wore the yellow badge either, nor did
German officials ever issue an order requiring Danish Jews to display
it.
(end of quote).

If you are not satisfied with the above, that is your problem. I am
not going to occupy myself with your silliness any further.
