1495. You really seem up to date.

1495 - brilliant. 
They did even speak a different language here then. Honestly Stu, I have been living in this country for quite a while and have dealt with large quantities of names and people but a Heintz has never been anywhere else than on the dinner table.
There may exist a Heintz somewhere in Germany, strange spellings in names seems to give some people a kick, less though their child who has to live with that. But if you want to go on using that name for expressing German cliches you rather drop the t, makes you look a little silly if you don't.
And I want to believe that a light's shining through somehow

I see.
How about Cuntz?
You live in Germany, you must know some Cuntz.

If any than it is a surname. You'll find the modern version Kuntz or Kunz a lot - but as you may guess the German pronunciation is not what you hope it was, it's rather something like Koonts in your language.
In 1996 Germany played England in the European Football Championship and German centre forward Stefan Kuntz massively fuelled the English imagination (even more so when he scored ). He was subsequently immortalized in the update of Baddiel & Skinner's "Three Lions (Football's Coming Home)" video. It simply makes it easier to crack a good joke if you sometimes turn a blind eye to foreign names and languages.

Only Stu would argue with two native speakers over proper spelling in their language. 
You know who else makes creatures? Satan.

Stu, for my own interest (and, incidentally, for my dossier), I'd be interested if you could name some posters you get along well with at TW.

Oh crap, I don't know. Some? None? I seem to be getting on OK with EJ, despite my best efforts at taking the piss (which he is taking with good grace). I've had disagreements with PP in the past, but I get on reasonably well with him now (though he seems to be somewhat on the outer here now). As I've just said on another thread, I don't actually post here anymore, so I don't really care.
As I've also said in many past posts, most of you lot are cyphers between whom I can't differentiate. For example you and the Prism creature - I can never remember which is which (not that it matters). Not even worth recording in the dossier. Most of you are simply (and simple) twister-trained puppies - an amorphous mass of smarmy unpleasantness. I'm not trying to insult you here, just being honest. I merely amuse myself by winding you up to see what comes out.

Ah, that's good. So, basically, the dossier can be summarised as follows:
Neutrals: 96dbfreak
Puppies: The rest of TW
But, generally, that's cool cos I like wind ups.
Still, you've confused me on a couple of points.
1) Who is PP? 2) Where you write 'For example you and the Prism creature . . .' who is the 'you'?
