Actually there are no businessmen in Berlin! That's one reason why there's no work there. The businessmen all stayed in the Ruhr Valley, Dusseldorf, Koln, Munich, Hamburg. Only bureaucrats and artists moved to Berlin, to join the very old people who've been there since the war. There is no rush hour, no bars full of men in crumpled suits, no old street markets being threatened by an overspilling financial district. Lots of punk squatters with dogs on strings, though, and lots of Nathan Barley (http://ilx.p3r.net/thread.php?msgid=5343419) types.
