Some people may think that certain Apple II personalities are arrogant jerks, but they are indeed the most polite and pleasant persons compared with some of that guys in the so-called Department of nature protection, and I think this does not affect only Germany. According to the most divine of all book authors, Douglas Adams, these guys are everywhere in the world.Egocentric like a tornado, tactful like an avalanche, tolerant like a stake, stubborn like a battle tank, bureaucratic, greedy, officious and callous. In the college, I've seen these characters only from far away, but now I was about to make close contact with a particularly good sample of these species, a woman who gets the biggest punishment of all from me: I am not going to mention her name here.
She gently invited me on the phone to learn more about nature protection, but when I told her about the hybrid gardener, she screamed "I HATE THESE GUYS!!!!!" into the receiver. A good judge of men would have diagnosed advanced black and white brain disease, but I came to her completely unbiased.

"Vogon Constructor Fleets: Here is what to do if you want to get a lift from a Vogon: forget it. They are one of the most unpleasant races in the galaxy -- not actually evil, but bad tempered, bureaucratic, officious and callous."
Douglas Adams, "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy"
