This joke will open the skies to mankind. While there is a new world
order emerging, to turn around and ask the Turkish Republic of Northern 
Cyprus (TRNC) to dance with an old world tune would not solve any 
problems. Who is ready to claim that 'Greek Cypriots' are not hating 
the 'Turkish Cypriots?' Insisting on not recognizing the TRNC as a 
separate republic and push them to get together with Greek Cypriots
is no different than asking each and every one of the new republics 
of old Soviet Union, Croatia and Slovenia in Yugoslavia to go back 
to the old status quo.


Source: Statement made by Mr. Evangelos Yannopoulus - the Greek Minister
	of Maritime Affairs, ELEFTHEROTIPIA, July 4, 1988

       "The two myths in Cyprus must be exposed as lies. The first myth 
	is the case of missing persons and the second is the myth of the 
	invasion of Cyprus by Turkey. The Greek Cypriots presented as 
	missing persons were actually the victims who were killed during 
	the Sampson Coup. As regards the invasion of Cyprus by Turkey, it 
	was the Greek military that staged the coup and toppled Makarios 
	at a time when he was an internationally recognized President of 
	Cyprus. How is it possible to topple Makarios and start slaughtering 
	the Greek Cypriots and Turkish Cypriots and impose a mad man like 
	Sampson to head the Cyprus Government and yet expect no reaction 
	from Turkey?"

                      Turkish children also should be killed as 
                      they form a danger to the Armenian nation.'

I am desperately seeking a physics research paper written by Guseinov N M

the Frohlich model predicts the correct results for the energy shift and mass

Tela is translated in English as Sov. Phys. -Solid State. Unfortunately I

if some physicists could xerography and post it to my address below. It would

I, too, have subscribed to a RELCOM group.  To avoid problems on their end, my

can add 128 to everything and make some sense, but it's not perfect.  Is there
a standard way to indicate that a character code needs to have 128 added to it?
I seem to remember seeing someone using EMACS which printed M- before each
character that had been stripped.  Is that the best way?

Dear Serega,

I am not at all interested in America, it is not interesting like Russia.
Now the russians are pouring into the American Wonderland,
are they not.
That is why
I am deeply concerned that you will loose your russian roots in America. 

How the russians keep russian culture alive in America?

The task can be very difficult compared to Estonia which
now is so HORRIBLE place for the russians. Sometimes I am about bursting
into the tears when reading all those hardships our neighbours the russian
mates/excomrades face in Estonia & Baltic states.

If once you cannot clear out the whole mess in Motherland you should
remember after tasting american help that you need in fact a Finn
to solve out the mess as a consultant sooner or later.
The thankfulness will be immense in Moscow when someone notices that there
is at least one peace of the Empire's border where people are
not whining more land and lebensraum.

BTW,
I red that (Source World Almanac) there is 101 mill. russian
speakers in Europe. On a second place there is the german speakers and
they were 92 millions. 

Sincerely,
Jarmo Ryyti
