#1 Look: principles are nice and all, but there's no way I'm boycotting a beer festival. Even for something as tragic as this.

#4 Let me get this right. Lets see...
Brothels == Good
White Slavery of Eastern European Women == Good
Love Parades with sex in the street == Good
Nude or topless beaches == Good
Nude museums == Good

Low cut barmaid's outfits == Bad

What is it that I don't understand here.

#5 maybe they should wear the hijab.
Although it was always the strong muscular guys carrying the 8 pitchers of beer that intrigued me at ocktoberfest
No we shouldn't protest, I can see a Rantburg reunion here to discuss the matter though

#8 The ruling is part of the new Optical Radiation Directive

With a title like that, you know it has to be chocked full of nutty goodness.

#19 This is a work safety rule, right?

So instead of outlawing the lowcut tops they should mandate regular applications of SPF-40 sunblock.

To be applied by the customers, if necessary ....

#20 Switzerland, not a member of the EU, but who celebrates Octoberfest, should use this as a tourist marketing program...

"Our barmaids are not endorsed by European Union bureaucrats.
Come to Octoberfest Switzerland 2005!"
