       | in Budapest. I do miss the Hungarian climate, the food and some
       | of the people. If you go to Hungary, explore outside Budapest!

       | I visited Szeged for the Computer Science Logic conference in
       | 2006 and was quite taken with it - including the Stalinist-era
       | university dorm architecture, and of course all of the paprika-
       | industrial legacy.
