I think a bit of historical perspective is needed.

This is what you get for winning the battle of Clontarf.

If your ancestors had let my ancestors conquer the island you'd all be Lutherans ... and you wouldn't have this problem.

Slight nit pick - My ancestors are German.  Personally I blame the Romans.  They got such a shock from the naked picts and Angles in England that they couldn't face coming here.  Thus we haven't a straight road in the country.

As for Clontarf - you guys were only interested in shipping off "our" booty and our women - in that order.  Get over it.
