So in your admittedly limited snapshot it would appear that around two-thirds of people have knowledge of Max? Sounds about right. :)
(For the avoidance of doubt this applies to the UK only and shouldn't be taken as me extrapolating that the rest of the world thinks the same way - clear?)
I know enough of the European press given that I read it every day and its been some time I gave up on UK based one, while French and German are better and cover all I need.Quote:
