Are there? You speak with conviction about discrimination against Russians in Baltics yet you ask me for evidence!

Again you claim discrimination against Russians in Baltics. There is none. It is very easy to become a citizen of the Republic of Latvia. You need to: be at least 15 years old (children become citizens together with their parents); have lived in Latvia for the last 5 years; speak Latvian...

Please explain what do you mean by discrimination towards Russians in Baltics. I assure you there is none. Also please specify what, in your opinion, constitutes serious repressions that Russia would have to react to. Although our elites are predominantly liberal democrats who value...

Yes, the European Union encourages open, uniform, capitalistic free market. It's called the single market. If you don't like the single market - of course you won't like the EU. But why would anyone not like a single market is incomprehensible.

Dude, too soon. You can't rewrite history if most people still actually remember what happened. Not sure if serious. I2SvhDY23So

They didn't just shoot 14 unarmed people, they also used tanks to crush them. A group of Lithuanians attempt to stop a Soviet Red Army tank from crushing a fellow protester during the assault on the Lithuanian Radio and Television station in Vilnius in January 1991.

Alex, I hope you do realize that the more you use the terms like fascist or nazi and the more people you label as fascists and nazis the more you dilute the meaning of those terms. If you and people like you keep up with your campaign to label all your opponents fascists/nazis then soon it will...

Americans should certainly switch over to the metric system, but the rest of the "metric" world should complete the metrification themselves first. Things that I would like to see converted to a base of ten: Geometry: why 360 degrees in a circle and not 100? Time: 10 hours/day; 100...

Seeing as best Korea is in the same group with China, Japan and South Korea, it has to be something cultural. Something food or language related?

I dunno if you are the right person to ask, but can you suggest somebody who is good with words and who argues against the ideology of communism. I'm specifically interested in arguments about humans being naturally too selfish and greedy for communism to work.

Only hydro electric or all renewable? How do islands like New Zealand, Iceland, Sri Lanka, and the Caribbean one get hydroelectric power? I don't think they have large rivers. Or do they?

What would the flag look like?

I have always wondered about this map - why are there so many more rivers in Iberia than in, say, Baltics? Are there really that many major rivers in Iberia or the mapmakers simply got sloppy with Eastern Europe?

Why did you stop? ;)

I would kindly request that you provide the source for this information. Otherwise I call these blatant lies.

How about lead? If it is a chemical element it rhymes with led, but if it is somebody in front it rhymes with need. :crazyeye:

The current situation in Latvia could be a good case to study the effects of austerity without currency devaluation. The government has slashed spending by massive amounts as demanded by the IMF, but the central bank has ignored demands to devalue currency. It is currently pegged to Euro and...

Lithuania also made cuts similar in nature to those of Latvia, but to a much lesser extent. Estonia has had a frugal budget for a long time so they really did not need to change their spending habits.
