Re Gurney's post of 27 Nov at 1.23...
I can usually take a joke, but I never knew my maternal grandparents.. they were impoverished Jews who moved from Poland to Germany after the 1st World War to avoid pogroms, but ended up in the Warwaw ghetto (grandfather) and a death camp (grandmother), so the "Rich as any Jew" line made me wince, and the apparently conditioned audience response did too.
