The German news magazine Der Spiegel published a story about Beneath the Neon and the underground flood channels of Las Vegas – apparently. See, the story is in German and I’m having little luck with online translators (unless, indeed, it’s written at a first-grade level and contains several non sequiturs). So I’m posting this one for my German-speaking friends. Maybe they can read the story and let me know if the writer, Hilmar Schmundt, shit-talked me or not.

Hey,
I can tell you, the author has not “shit-talked you” at all!
I’ve read the really interesting article and decided to buy your book because I found it to be that fascinating.
So don’t worry, that guy Schmundt did a really good job writing the article!
If you’d like to get the more or less exact translation which I guarantee will be better than the online translation 😉 just contact me! I’d be glad to help you out!
Cheers, TJ
Hey, TJ. Thanks for your help on this. I, of course, have a general idea of what the story is about and know that Hilmar did a good job with it. He’s a cool dude.
Thanks for buying the book. Hope you enjoy it.
I'm Dutch my German is basic, you definitely don't get shit talked, seems pretty good article.
PS I found your site after reading this in case you didn't know about it:
