On the surface, with a larger representative sample, this would seem
at least remotely scientific and kudos to you for trying to find out
what women would *really* think, but there is a fairly serious flaw in
the plan:

You're trying to figure out women and how they think!!! 

It can't be done....          8^)

My impression, you are in a trouble. But not because of me or other

I said several times that it is only _your_ opinion that I am

These people do not sit at universities, do not find out new theories
to make people happy (the result usually an incredible amount of
unhappiness), but they made a lot of money and workingplaces!)

The politicians mentioned above usually more radical than me. 
And not only the politicians, but they followers. You probably never
discussed _openly_ an average MDF or KDNP, not mentioning FKGP supporter.
They usually do not have the possiblity to express their opinion.
And if they have, they are frightened.

But dear Eva S. Balogh, it is good to know that you understand humor,
and you are not similar for example to Pe'ter Nagy, who is an outrageous
person. So you cannot be so dangerous. Although you are 
_the_ most blatant "liberal" I have ever had the pleasure of encountering, 
I give to your score a positive epsilon. That is not too much, but 
something.

On the other hand, I do not want to make you unhappy, but I am sure that 
we agree on most things. Because most statement is similar to the following
two examples: 1. The grass is green. 2. Stalin had a mustache. :-).

I think, you did not take into account the obvious. May be, Joseph Toth

A little dictionary to understand my post:

we also can state about a "liberal" that he/she is a person who only
pretends that he/she is a liberal. Maybe, he/she is something else.
For example a communist, or simply an idiot, or a conservative who is
terrorized by "liberals" (and other champions of "freedom" (like TGM)) and 
wants to stay alive.

And an other thing. For you, who the God (It is terrible, what this guy

Do not call people fascist, racist, etc. That sounds so bad ... . Some of
those people, who you call for example "racist" are _really_ hurt.
You should not hurt people! This is the overall aim of the PC new-speak!
So I suggest you that insted of using the word "racist", use the more
acceptable "racially conscious white person" expression.

For fascist and anti-semite I was not able to find such a good and descriptive
expression, but you can suggest!!! Please!!

	Oh, no! You don't know me well enough. Unfortunately I have a very
accurate sense of Hungarian political reality, especially because it
was only a few months ago that I spent time there and talked to people
from all walks of life. When I came back I reported my findings to the
readers of HUNGARY. I felt that the SZDSZ was doomed, partly because
it is labeled as a Jewish party and there are enough open and hidden
antisemites in Hungary  for whom this label matters, and partly
because most of the people in Hungary don't understand democracy yet.
They are either enamored by the socialist demagogs or the right-wing
demagoges. Therefore parties in between these two poles don't have a
chance.

>I said several times that it is only _your_ opinion that I am

	Well, mainstream is a bit of an exaggeration. I would put you into a
right-wing segment of the population, let's say 20 percent of the
whole.

	Oh, yes, I do read their speeches and I am not terribly impressed. And
as for Torgyan, who, accordingly you, is "definitely not an
extremist," now that's a laugh. As for Torgyan's economist, the great
Erzsebet Gidai, I think she is not only an idiot but also a turncoat
and her so-called economic ideas are full of existing socialist ideas.

> Although you are 
>_the_ most blatant "liberal" I have ever had the pleasure of encountering, 
>I give to your score a positive epsilon. That is not too much, but

	I find the "the most blatant "liberal'" label most interesting. Until
I encountered our Hungarian rightwingers I though of myself as a
middle-of-way road ordinary person who believes in democratic form of
government, on the one hand, and capitalist mode of production as
opposed to socialism (or Western European welfare state) , on the
other. Now, it turns out that I am a flaming liberal and a great
friend of Gyula Horn, the former member of the Politburo.

	I would like to correct you on two accounrs: (1) humor is certainly a
part of American culture. It is enough to watch some of the sitcoms.
And, just for your information, I am very funny both in Hungarian and
in English. (2) This is not just a little game. The kind of ideas you
espouse are deadly serious. Don't make light of them.

I suppose this is again a matter of perceptions.  If the Hungarian 
minority in Romania shared your perception above, they would most likely
act as you suggest.  They obviously think otherwise.

We obviously read the lessons from the Yugoslav wars of succession very 
differently.  My view is that the majority must refrain from making the
minorities feel threatened, and must provide them with explicit legislative
rights to prove its goodwill.  The nationalistic regimes of Milosevic and
Tudjman did the exact opposite in 1989 and 1991, respectively, and these
irresponsible actions triggered first the secession of Slovenia and Croatia
and then the war.  (NB I view Bosnia a more complex case.)

).

Again, the only example of successfully solving a minority problem was 
South Tyrol where the Italian majority moved first in granting extensive 
rights of local autonomy to the German speakers.  A minority is, by 
definition, disadvantaged.  It requires special rights to mitigate this
inherent situation.  If you call that a buyoff, so be it, but this is the
case.  I would call it the majority showing that it can be generous towards
the minority, something that Italian public opionion felt secure enough to 
grant.  This confidence within the majority is apparently missing in many 
other countries, including, but not limited to, Romania.

>We both need to understand in our bones that one group cannot be happy unless 
>the other group is happy as well.

Indeed.  However, it is always the majority that has the power to set the
agenda, so it is the majority that needs to take the first step.

I wrote "...Mr. Horn, as a butcher of Freedomfighters, is the

Istvan answers:

"As did Erzsebet Nagy - Imre Nagy's daughter".

My answer to Istvan:

Yepp! The daughter of murdered went indeed, to place a wreath on
the grave, hand-in-hand with Gyula Horn. I never singled out Eva
Balogh for a PERSONAL ATTACK, I condemn ALL who support and/or
publicly alleviate the crimes of butchers of Freedomfighters.
If and when Erzsebet Nagy appears on Internet to also vocally support
the Horn-regime, she will not be unopposed, either. Again, mine is
NOT a personal attack but an attack on treason and on disloyalty to
ones Homeland.

Istvan, on a different issue, I think you are too harsh on Eva Balogh.
You wrote: " As soon as there is a response to her posting she abandons
the thread and start a new one, ... just like those travel agencies that
spring up in a location, collect payments for advertised trips, and
close down as soon as their fraud is discovered, only to reappear in a
different location. Similarly to these criminal enterprises ..."

It is quite true, that Eva Balogh not only "abandons" the thread once
she is not able or willing to debate the issue (like now, when she just
cannot counter my argument), but she has laid down a patter of abandoning
entire PLATFORMS where she is unable to hold water. (When the going gets though
,
Eva Balogh gets going ELSEWHERE...)  Thus, she has completely withdrawn from
Forum and started her "new thread" on Hungary, and when she could not counter
my last letter there, she has pressed the list owner to CENSOR ME OUT such
that she won't have to debate me. (Once I was censored out, she went on
quoting HALF of what I wrote in Forum, and tried to badmouth me on a platform
I am censored out from with "nazi" and other totally false accusations - bravo!
)

These days she writes only in "moderated" (censored) lists such as SZALON and
HUNGARY and apparently her opening a "new thread" here on SCM also backfired...
I wonder where she will  reapper next, maybe in "Nemzet"
(http://www.siliconvalley.com/nemzet.html)?

Yet, don't be so harsh on Eva Balogh, since she has all the privileges
of writing (or not writing) to any list(s) as she pleases. I would never
call her a "criminal" for THAT!

Actually, there are acts of free will that we most definitely do oppose --

A MULTIBILLION (6.3 in 1995 to be more preciselly) dollar american corporation 
has recently opened the Hungarian market. Given the success they had in 
Poland, and the popularity  is enjoing already in Hungary. There is very 
little finacial risk involved in joining their team and those who join early 
have a high chance of ending up in leadership positions in a couple of years 
(and this means SERIOUS MONEY even for american standards!). Some are already 
enjoying the fruits of this rapid expansion. The best thing is that you do not 
have to quit your job to make it work (I still spend ten hours per day in the 
lab) unless this will start paying so well that you will just quit yourself. 
For hungarians at home this is a great chance to make money with almost no 
risk (it is within the possibilities of an average income) and for the ones 
abroad this is a win-win possibility: can make more money for yourself AND 
help your friends and relatives at home live better without you paying for 
that ( :) isn't that great? I plan to help my family join as soon as 
possible). Well anyway, I cannot tell you more without starting to advertise 
so if you are curious about making some extra money (without quiting your job) 
send me a mail at 
 or write (O.P. Jurma, 716 1/2 W 30th Street, Los Angeles, CA

and I will get back to you with more information and real numbers.

Call them as you wish.  But the baby still depends on others for survival,
and quite a long time after birth.

What is a "bodily resource"?   If you read your beloved Marx, even he'll
tel you that the most precious "bodily resource" is time, since we have
only a limited ammount of it.

A mother needs eat only 20% more to supprot a baby in the womb.  A
lumberjack needs eat at least 3 times as much to support his emloyer.  So
who sucks more -- the z/e/f or your employer?  What about the IRS?

If they also take "bodily resources" from us, can we justify killing them?

Can you define what is this "bodily resource" that if provided to another
human being defines it as non-independent and, therefore, unprotected from
murderers?

May be you didn't define "bodily resorce."  Do so and we'll talk.

This is exatly why our society designates "man" as a special species, and
forbids men killing men.  This is exactly the reason lions don't go to
court, or to jail, and the reason why rabbits don't have credit cards. 

It hasn't always been like that, but the world is evolving.

All embassies do that with their own citizens. I waited more than 9 
months in 1988-1989 for a passport for my son at the Hungarian embassy in 
Sofia. Later when my own passport was stollen, I had to contact a 
vice-minister in order to receive my passport without waiting a few 
months.

I would make the case that even with ethnic hostility, the strategy that 
I have outlined would be more successful over the long haul to acheive 
ethnic hungarian aspirations than the separatist (politically) idea of 
the UDMR. If you ethnically separate, you are setting up conditions where 
ethnicity becomes more of a consideration, not less. For a minority that 
is a deadly idea over the long haul.

If anything should have disproven your case it was Bosnia. They had tight 
ethnic integration, a lot of cross ethnic mixing, a significant portion 
of the population did not view themselves as serb, croat, or muslim, this 
is the kind of situation where there really *was* no majority to threaten 
a minority since what you have in Bosnia is a set of ethnic groups, none 
of which have a majority. 

Still the ethnicization of politics led to the destructive explosion that 
you've seen there. I remember a statement by a member of Bosnia's ruling 
council, not two weeks before the start of hostilities, that a war in 
Bosnia would be impossible because the mixing was so complete, they would 
have to fight building by building, floor by floor. It turns out that they 
did fight just that way. 

The key to ethnic peace in Transylvania is for the romanian ethnics to 
try to sap the strength of the PUNR and the PRM while hungarian ethnics 
break their monolithic UDMR into ideological parties. The grand alliance 
of opposition parties to Funar in Cluj shows that romanian ethnics realize 
that the PUNR is unhealthy. What have the hungarians ethnics done to 
demonstrate that they realize that they too are willing to de-ethnicize their 
politics? This has got to be a two-way street, otherwise the forces for 
moderation on the other side will lose their fight and there will be 
significant inter-ethnic conflict down the road.

So do you recognize that the grand alliance in Cluj was such a first step?

not, ever again, try to exercise "technical" censorship
over other peoples' freedom of expression and, especially,
not to meddle with Hungarians
I have emailed to AOL (Megorov's Internet and email service)
a letter of complaint, documenting as much as I could, Megorov's
activities. It seems that AOL has a department, so called
Postmaster, that is concerned with client abuses. Please
send an email to Him/Her (email is: )
I am attaching a copy of that letter below. I think what
Megorov has done by this morning (here in California, June 28,
Fridays) is just too much. He deserves to be punished.
Sincerely, Laszlo horvath

Dear Madam/Sir:

A certain MEgorov, and AOL subscriber, several weeks ago
started mailing abusive, provocative, inflamatory notes to
the newsgroup Soc.culture.magyar. Most of these Megorov notes
are abusive of Hungary and Hungarians.
Contributors to the newsgroup on the whole decided to ignore
Megorov, seeing that a sick and disturbed person was at work.
Megor seems to have been mailing similar notes to the emails
of individual contributors as well.
But this morning (June 28, Friday) we are confronted with a very
serious problem. Somehow Megorov has managed to replace the contents
of most contributions to the newsgroup with a standard abusive
contributions, including those of most electronic journals presented
on this newsgroup.
This is a very serious case: Megorov has exercised censorship, denied
the rights of the readers/browsers of, and contributors to, this
news group.
For technical reasons I am unable to attach a copy of the index of
this mornings's Soc.culture.magyar. You could see that 80 percent of
the long list of contributors' name is that of Megorov.
I was looking forward this morning, as I am sure many other
contributors, to read one anothers comments on subjects we consider
serious, and to read the various electronicjournals, and uppon
opening each item, find only Megorov's standard abusive note.
I am attaching below copies of some of his activities and hope
that AOL officials will look into this matter.
Thank you. Sincerely, Laszlo Horvath )
P.s. the last Megorov posting (dated June 27) is the one that he
has somehow succeeded to substitute for almost all the non-Megorov
postings (including electronic journals) to this newsgroup.
