The idea that the Jews of certain towns have kept alive a tradition of poison for 600 years sounds a little bizarre, to put it mildly.

Hey, if we can avoid eating pigs and lobsters for two millenia, keeping up on our well-poisioning is a doddle.  :hmm:

Wurzburg is Bavarian; Aachen is a Westphalian border city and a former imperial seat.  Totally different cultural backgrounds.

I think the fact that Bavaria was the stronghold of the Nazis probably has something to do with it as well.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011
