When did I say I find anything offensive. I merely told you what ethnic Macedonians think. Do you even know English? I did not state my view at all. If I was irredentist I would have said temporary control. And I said nothing about Bulgarians anywhere. I only mentioned the blue corner, never  Blagoevgrad/Pirin (the Green corner if you will). Laveol, you are suggesting that the blue corner is Bulgarian! You are offended because my ""irredentism"" conflicts with yours. And now, I will, for the first time, point a Bulgarian editor to hypocrisy. Feel free to point me to sarcasm. 
And Avg, the ethnic Macedonians call their land, in their everyday speech, plain vanilla Macedonia as well. The only difference is the two versions are written in different alphabets and have different syllabic emphasis. ""Slavic Macedonia"" doesn't work because the Bulgarians and Serbs and even Poles are also Slavs.  My proposal works better (in a discussion) as it is actually neutral. And there has been compromise on both sides - don't mistake this for intransigence just because your views have not been suited to a greater extent. Alex 202.10.89.28  "
