From experience I would say the Dutch.

Being well over 6 foot myself it was a bit strange to feel short when stood next to women there, maybe they were just wearing platform clogs though.

I've been struggling to think of a decent question, and in doing so was reminded of a quote.

"It is a very sad thing that nowadays there is so little useless information"

So my question is, to whom is that quote credited?

Not Stephen Fry. But if I didn't think it would be misleading, then I would say that was very close indeed to the right answer.
