"I think you will find it's a bit more complicated than that".

Sir is falling into the trap (alarmingly common in the USA) of simplifying history to the point of meaninglessness. Indeed, you would do well to understand why the UK and France ceased their support for Bohemia in an act of appeasement; an act that certainly wasn't taken lightly and was itself done for complex reasons, partly arising from the trauma of the Great War that was still fresh in many minds.


The clueless downvoters are out again!


Cezeta souds more like a scooter Tesla - you get easy handling, chic looks and an innovative two-way throttle. So I guess the usual buyer is a scooter fan (or snob) more likely than a usual commuter.

They didn't know they had all the solutions until they now proved there're no more solutions.


Haha. Last error message I saw from Spotify was: "Login failed. Unable to login, either username or password is incorrect. Have you signed up for a Spotify account?". The issue was that I filled in my email instead of username into a form that said "Username or email", see https://community.spotify.com/t5/iOS-iPhone-iPad/I-can-t-log... Tell me something about error messages, Spotify.
