Hi Dave,
I guess, a 'soliloguy' is a guy who talks to himself in a soliloquy.
On the other hand, what the bureaucrats in Brussels wrought is worthy of any 
dyed-in-the-wool 'Schildbürger'. Now for those of you who did not grow up 
speaking German, a 'Schildbürger' is a citizen of the town of Schilda in Germany, 
famous for its common sense solutions. One such solution deals with their new 
city hall, in the construction of which the need for windows was overlooked. 
Thus, to solve their dilema of having a pitch-black city hall, the citizens of 
Schilda came upon a solution--they wove baskets, put them in the sun, and then 
simply carried the  caught sunlight into city hall. Simple, heh!
Of course, now Schilda is empty, because all the Schildbürger moved to 
Brussels to save the environment from lead-bearing solder.
