A philologist who can understand this much really shouldn't be having such a
hard time in this discussion. The simple point you seem to refuse to
consider is that there is NO need for you to be the guinea pig for KDE4.
We've pointed out to you numerous times that it's pretty simple to upgrade
as little or as much as you want. You can stick with a kernel from Gutsy,
KDE (3.5) from Hardy, and everything else from Intrepid if you want.
You _don't_ want to change - and that's alright. So why try to antagonize
everybody else?

I suspect not. I'd guess Lisi's German, not that it matters :-)

I'm not American, but I think I take that question the same way most
Americans would. It implies they're deliberately ignoring the point you're
trying to make - and since your arguments seem to be doing the same, it's
insulting. From your description, I'd suggest that what you really meant
is more along the lines of "do you understand what I'm trying to say?" (and
yes, I realize that logically those mean _exactly_ the same, but the latter
is much less confrontational).
