I think that you are missing the point. The gentleman in question was 
using non-standard usage for english. I was curious why. I poked to try
to get a response and instead of useful information from the original poster
I get a wagonload of abuse from you. He wasn't a hungarian, he wasn't a 
romanian. He was an American posting from the university of Oregon as far
as I am concerned. If you don't find that interesting and worthy of comment
that's fine but it is no reason to call me (so far) stupid, ignorant, and
a fascist. Come on.

To try to put this (and me) with Funar is just plain witch-hunting. I have
no love for the man and have posted negative opinions about him in the
past. Nor am I particularly fond of CV Tudor and hope that these two 
Romanian demagogues sink to the proper level of total anonymity that they
deserve. 

Let's keep a bit of perspective here.

Maybe he just tried to push your button.  To rattle your chain, so to
speak.  Because your reactions are so predictable.

On the other hand, why do most non-Polish/non-German people call the
Polish city of Oswiecim as Auschwitz?

I can already see the international news media descending on the scene
of the exercises in anticipation of another pitch(fork)d battle between
the local peasants and NATO. Please, somebody close to the scene, give
us the blow-by-blow report.

OK, here is a 10-points  question for you. Whose programme included,
among other demands, the following points:

1.granting of civil rights, such as the recognition of the freedom of
their press and of public meetings and associations;
2.assigning of native-speaking officials to Transylvanian districts;
3.use of their language in the courts;
4.teaching in their own language?

If you rush to answer UDMR, you are wrong. Nevertheless, isn't it
ironic that exactly the same demands have survived for such a long
time in Transylvania, although the ethnicity of those making the
claims today is the ethnicity of those to whom the demands were
presented more than 80 years ago?

 This document summarizes network-related resources of Hungarian
interest, which are accessible via email. Some of the most readily
available sources of information can be found in the archives of
periodical information postings to Usenet; these documents are commonly
known as FAQs (from Frequently Asked/Answered Questions). Knowing the
name of the file you can retrieve it by sending email to
 with the command "send
usenet/news.answers/<ARCHIVE-NAME>" in the message (without the quotes,
and with substituting the actual name for <ARCHIVE-NAME> in the pattern
shown above) - for example, to get the document described below, use

 send usenet/news.answers/hungarian-faq

 To learn more about the RTFM server just send the command "help" to it
- it will provide step-by-step intstructions on how to use the
archives, on retrieving indexes and so on.

 "Hungarian electronic resources FAQ" is a comprehensive collection
dealing with email, FTP, WWW and other Internet tools; its archive name
is 'hungarian-faq' (and the mail-server command to get it is shown in
the example above).
 If you only have direct access to email then, in order to use the
other tools, you'll need the methods described in "Accessing The
Internet By E-Mail" (Archive-name:
internet-services/access-via-email).
 To get a general introduction to Usenet (with some guides to Internet
as well - and explanation of how they are different, too) see "Welcome
to news.newusers.questions!" (Archive-name: news-newusers-intro).
 For a guide to finding someone's e-mail addresses, see the "FAQ: How
to find people's E-mail addresses" (Archive-name: finding-addresses).
Do notice that it's usually inappropriate to send such blanket requests
to mailing lists; the search tools available give much better chance to
locate addresses sought than posted queries in any case!
 An overview of commercial on-line services in Hungary is available by 
John Horvath > 
(Archive-name: hungarian/comm-providers).

 The hungarian-faq describes several email lists related to Hungary;
only a brief summary is shown here. Please keep in mind that
subscription requests (and other administrative communications) should
be directed to the server address, NOT to the lists themselves.

Server: 
 List:  (the HUNGARY LISTSERV list)

Server: 
 List: HOL (Hungary Online)

Server: 
 List: hungary-report

Server: 
 Lists: OMRI-L (Open Media Research Institute Daily Digest)
        MIDEUR-L (Middle European discussion list)

Server: 
 List: cet-online (Central Europe Today On-Line; email )

Server: 
 List: CERRO-L (Central European Regional Research Organization)

Server: email to  (Hollosi Information Exchange)
 Lists: HIX is a collection of several separate lists, including
  - MOZAIK, a collection of news items in English
  - various discussion forums in Hungarian language
  - SCM and HUNGROUPS, which are email-accessible archives of the Usenet
    newsgroup soc.culture.magyar and the hun.* national hierarchy,
    respectively; to get a directory listing of these archives (as well
    as that of other HIX lists), send email to  with
    "arch" in the 'Subject:' line. Note that the SENDDOC utility takes
    its parameter from the 'Subject:' of the message (unlike many other
    servers, like the ones described previously, which use the body)!

 Note that this document is available on the
 <http://hix.mit.edu/hungarian-faq/>; homepage for the "Hungarian
electronic resources FAQ" at the HIX WWW-server.
 The latter also provides access for the full FAQ via 
 'finger ', and for this brief pointer you are
reading via 'finger ' (notice that you
will likely need to redirect the output to a pager or a file in order
to read it). The Usenet archive name for this document is
 hungarian/pointer .

  IMHO that depends on the difference in elevation at Nagymaros and 
Gabcikovo. I may be wrong but I don't think that the slope of the Danube's
riverbed is that steep or the distance that long. Does anybody have the
numbers? Therefore I think the dam at Nagymaros would have restored the
needed water level without flooding towns.
