- I join you in your concern. The people of
- Slovakia have not had independence in the past,
- and possess two of the "modern devils" of
- politics. First, they were a fascist state
- aligned with Axis during WW II. Then, they
- inherited an equally ambitious poitical
- Nomenklatura under the Communists.
-
- With such a poor international reputation,
- compounded by a lack of economic and
- manufacturing infrastructure, what will become
- of this agrarian nation?
-
- What will become of key issues, such as the
- Danube river dams, oppression of ethnic
- hungarians, and the nuclear reactor at Jaslovske
- Bohunice?
-
- How did you teach in Czechoslovakia? Were one
- curious in such opportunites, say teaching
- computer programming and does speak Czech and
- German - what kinds of opportunites could be
- afforded?
