I can understand nothing, I'll just see people without proper
'education' (just learning numbers and names are not education).
If s.o. is able to destroy a thing 'just for fun' the barrier
is low to hurt people - He hasn't learned to controll himself
anyway. No matter how much frustration. Loosing controll is not
tolerable in any circumstances.

Just BTW - speaking of home-made bread: Do you refer to this
bread machine stuff over in the US - I can't see any quality
in there - no difference - I'll prefere German Factory bread
before almost any US creation (with an exception - A hod dog
bun with a frank or any kind of Habmurger :))
