S! all,fun? frightening? weird? nuts? Some time ago I found this incredible advertisement on some german news site. I don't remember exactly in which country the campaign was published but I believe it was in Korea. German heating company DBK did not know about this campaign - they said. Anyone out there who can tell us what the advertisement says?

Hell of a "risque" I vould think?But to be taken with a pinch of salt, and with a bit of humour! Probably says something along the lines of "I vill heat up your vorld!" E.R.

Possible- they got the "short end of the stick" as well in that part of the world, and vould probably be more "sympathetic" to this type of add- It is about as sensless as our NANDO's one- Tobiwan?  The reaction to this type of add depends on the background of the target audience- some will find it very offensive, others will not- who's to say who is right? E.R.

MOk:
Thx for info!  hmmm, maybe it was Hongkong (or was it Taiwan?) - phhh I don't remember! Tobiwan:
I think you are right. Many asian countries don't find Hitler and his nazi-ideology as offensive as we do! Herr Rommel:
Ich go viz your opinion!
But vor dscherman audience zis ist quite schokking - even if taken with humour!

Herr HooverIt helps to grow a thicker skin, and not to take things too personally- and to live for tomorrow ??- IMHO- been a white South African- from the "Wrong" side of the tracks  E.R. [This message has been edited by Edwin Rommel (edited 03-10-2000).]
