Dr. Kurtz: “My parents came here from Poland.”

Me: “You know, ‘Kurz’ was the name of one of the famous German climbers who perished on the North Wall of the Eiger in the 1930s.”

Dr. Kurtz looked at me, waiting, without reply.

Me: “I am a mountain climber, you know. Long ago as a kid I read all the literature about the Eiger. ‘Kurz’ as I recall ended up hanging on a rope just short of reaching the rescue party.”

Dr. Kurtz: “My family’s name in Poland was Katz. My parents changed it to Kurtz.”
