I have a lot of people who would argue for me that I would make a good addition to German/European society but the law is the law.

I hope the teaching works out too (they're in the planning phases for next semester now at both Erfurt and Jena), that's really all I want to do with my life.  I am not interested in getting rich or in power, the teaching gives so much more satisfaction when your students actually grasp what you are teaching.

But dealing with the bureaucracy, I really did think it was simpler just to become a Legionaire and wear the Kepi Blanc.
