Thanks. And you are somewhat right on the second part ('das das' is wrong, there should be a sharp 's' as the first one, i.e. 'daß das').

But i'm afraid i have to clarify i'm an evangelist of the true (literally old school) German language rules, and therefore i strongly detest the silly, unwanted (by most of the population) spelling reforms forced upon us by the Government in 1996 - so, f.e. no double 's' etc. for me, but 'ß'.
