Ludwig, you're in Hungary? Have you seen this video of the blonde country-music singer who makes all us Americans proud?

We know it, and we have evaluated it. (On that page the next item is " AMERICA THE STUPID".)

To be honest, I don't know - for example - the capital or whatever of Montana or Idaho, or where to find them on the map. (M and I are examples only. I can cite two other state without any prejudice.) You have too many state and town ... I think the knowledge - or the missing knowledge - is bilateral.
On the other hand, we can find differences. Hungarians have won many Nobel prizes. Many more than denizens of Montana and Idaho. Unfortunately, due to WWII, antisemitism and socialism, (near) all of them were ex-hungarians when they reached it.

Poor thing, the brother of Jared.
The Lord has treated him very specially : He has mentioned him 46 times in the Book of Mormon, without telling his name. (fourty six time, to be unambigous)

Well, he used a polygamist con man to restore his church. Why not use eBay?
God belief is for people who don't want to live life on the universe's terms.
