Is it so hard to comprehend that maybe living in a nice Austrian village can be better without a golden egg-laying goose that is a huge nuisance? Not everyone is an entrepreneur who wants to make sacrifices in the holy name of $$$.



I know, I agree 100% (I was being a bit provocative on purpose :p ).

But, on a serious note, I think this will backfire. It's one thing to not have a knife in you, it's totally another to remove one that is already in because you'd rather it wasn't there in the first place.

They are now officially 'the village formerly known as Fucking'. You can be sure the pranks will continue (possibly even more annoying because now people will be putting on an 'accent' when saying "Fugging").

I don't know what a better solution to this problem would be, but this doesn't mean I can recognise a bad solution when I see it.
