THE SECURITY GUARDS THAT TIME FORGOT ...!

Yesterday in Berlin I met two security guards who must have been cryogenically frozen during World War II and defrosted just in time to work at the IFA Consumer Electronics Show.  Despite the fact that I had my exhibitor badge, booth credentials and identification with me, they wouldn't let me into the convention center.  Rather than explain that I could simply use another door 100 yards away, these graduates of the Cro Magnon School of Diplomacy spent 15-minutes needlessly yelling at me.  For my part, I threatened to e-mail their bosses the many unflattering photos I took of them during our conversation!
