    Hi Ricsi,
    Ever since I’ve been contributing on this website, I don’t recall any stirred up Romanians around here. Stirred up Slovaks, we seem to have had our fair share of! Perhaps the Romanians aren’t as insecure or angst ridden. Romania is larger, has resources and access to the sea. Slovakia is small and the people may be easily made paranoid by some Hunky like me talking plebescites. What say you? What do you think is going on?
