Did not know that -- is he "reformed" now?

I'm always impressed oh how practical and well laid out IKEA stores are. I could ramble on and on about it.

The styles and prices are nice too
 
It was in his teens and he has since apologised, though it's not like he'd have had much choice but to do so given the status he has now. Given that his teens were over 50 years ago and not that long after WWII it's hard to imagine that he didn't have a decent concept of right and wrong, but there you go. It's not the only reson I dislike Ikea, but it tends to work the best if I have to give an example
