Ljubljana musings

Intense meeting for most of the day. In one of the lighter moments I asked our host if he agreed with my alternative history thesis, that if Serbia and Slovenia had done a deal in the late 1980s, then they could have kept Yugoslavia together and the whole federation would have been in the EU today.

And he said.. )

Walking around Ljubljana later on I came across Plečnik's memorial obelisk in French Revolution Square, which contains the ashes of a French soldier killed in 1813, "fighting for our freedom" as the Slovenes put it. I doubt if there is any other country in Europe which has as unequivocally positive a view of the Napoleonic period.

Problem is, the only one I've actually heard of is Natalie Appleton, though I admit she is good-looking. Is Dawn Marie Bytch a real name?
