[edit] Haas had No College Degrees

He had no college diplomas, but he spoke English with a perfect American accent, which is strange being that he fled Germany at age 23. He miserably butchered the French Language, when attempting to pronounce music titles in that language. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.184.143.196 (talkcontribs) 05:07, 24 February 2007

"Miserably butchered" is a subjective description. It reflects your personal opinion and is not generally valid or authoritative.Lestrade (talk) 15:01, 5 March 2008 (UTC)Lestrade
And "perfect American accent"? Which one would that be? I loved his work, I knew where he was from, and he did speak English beautifully - but if I heard his voice for the first time, and knew absolutely nothing about him including his name, I'd have said he spent a considerable time in Germany, probably from birth. -- JackofOz (talk) 15:33, 5 March 2008 (UTC)
Perfectly true. The hard "L" and the soft "R" give a German away every time.Lestrade (talk) 15:15, 6 March 2008 (UTC)Lestrade
