Very interesting entry, and I feel like a total pedant to point this out, but in the penultimate paragraph, the word naturla should perhaps be replaced by natural.
Other than that, very informative. If only we could get it in Switzerland.

If only everything in life was as quick to react as an italic.
(If I was to present myself as a total pedant, I'd challenge the apostrophe after years in the line below it, but I don't know enough about language to feel comfortable doing that. I'm just an engineering student)

Yup, you're right - it's a double genitive.
Should be either "many years' abuse" or "many years of abuse"
