Well Said, Zoli!  I would like to list her on my Hungarian Olympians
page.  If you haven't already done so, check it out, it's accessible
from the URL below.  Please send me the info regarding her gold medals
so I could add it to the list.

Post WWII films attempted to express more directly the real problems and situat
ions facing American society.  As a result, much of the previously repressed an
ger and confusion faced by post-war adolescents and young adults was addressed 
in new and controversial ways.  I am looking for thoughts on three of the socia
l andor political issues facing American society after the Second World War.  I
 need to relate examples from "Rebel Without a Cause" and "Easy Rider."  Any th
oughts out there

That's right-on Joe!  Do you or anyone else know where I could get my
hands on information regarding this issue?  I would like to write a
paper.

Alright, alright, I remember! Maybe there is something to that story after
all, although I am still somewhat sceptical . . . 

If it is true, and these people are still living in Egypt, someone should
make a little trek to discover them. It certainly could be interesting. Just
think, if the csangos speak an archaic dialiect of Hungarian, what must
these people be speaking after all these centuries!

I quoted that poets are liars. I don't reply on your abilities at 
comprehension. The poet that was quoted was one of the greats, not me -- I 
ain't one.

Didn't claim it could. That's your mode. I referred to a Lambourghini in the 
past.

The truth always knocks me out. However your so-called analogy indicates 
your incompoetence as compared to my poetency. Too bad you remain 
unpublished and likely always will.

I did rent my car at Vienna Airport for the same reason, however
apearantly it didn't do any good. On the contrary, it may have
attracted them even more. I had a big "A" on the back, with a Vienna
Licence Plate.

I never heard about the condition on those weapons sold vis a vis the
ones that remained, but overall I thought it was a good move by
Jeszenszky and it served national interest.  What I consider wrong is
that the SZDSZ used that national security issue for its own narrow
political interest to embarrass the Antall government.  Very close to
treason in my book.

Don't worry about that. She, as a foreign born, could not become the
President, unless the US Constitution is amended.  And that will not
happen.

Hm, has that habit changed in the last 2 years?  Or maybe your problem
was that your car did not have a large "D" on it ... ;-)
