  • thanks for sharing. but i feel that after reading his Wikipedia entry this guy also had somewhat difficult ideas to put it mildly.

    not saying that the particular ideas discussed in your linked article are wrong though. i guess they make sense from a us-centric, realist perspective. what is, in my mind, often missing from discussions about NATO expansion is that the new members wanted to join NATO. given how the Soviet Union/Russia treated those countries in the past, i can hardly blame them.


  • Okay, now its getting ridiculous. Just measured the leg opening of my current pair, its 17’'.

    Browsing through their website, i noticed, that leg opening appear to vary with color, approx. 1". Then i thought, maybe, i try my luck in different european stored (spain, belgium, netherlands). Same pattern, but then i noticed that i still had a tab for the US store open. Apparently, fit also differ between countries.
