Spread the word.
My publisher, Gibbs Smith, sent me a bit of merchandising which is now extensively used all over Singapore (thanks for modelling, WR).

Cheers,
yes, I am. And there sure is a thing called "Denglish" (a combination of Deutsch and English).
Just think of the supposedly English word for cell phone which is used all over Germany: handy. So on a Lufthansa flight you are told to "please turn your handies off" ...
Looking forward to your contributions!
Best,
olr.
