BONN -- A dead German sat in front

of his television set for five years, the

lights on his Christmas tree flashing

beside him, and none of his neighbors

noticed.

"Someone said once that he had gone

off to a home; I didn't ask any more,"

said Monika Majarres, who lived in

the same Hamburg block of flats as

Wolfgang Dircks, a divorced,

disabled loner who died in 1993 at

age 43.

The two neighbors on his floor only

moved in four years ago and had

never seen Dircks, a former toolmaker

who had reportedly threatened to

whip anyone who asked about him.

Other tenants in the 18-flat block

minded their business. Bild

newspaper said on Thursday the dead

man's letter box, which might have

raised an alarm when it overflowed,

had been emptied every now and then,

though no one knows by whom.

The landlords came knocking only

after the bank account from which

Dirck's rent and bills were paid ran

dry.

Beside the broken television set and

the still twinkling tree they found his

skeleton -- his TV listings magazine

still on his lap and open on the page

for Dec. 5, 1993.
