back then, i listened to that station as well, maainly done in Serbian. Why or how could you have understood what they were saying if you were unable to translate my last post to you in Serbian? They had a 30 min English broadcast, which does not allow much information to be putforth. How much Serbian do you understand and speak? Tranlsate what I have here into Serbian to demonstrate your knowledgebase.

I have never said I understood Serbian. I said I listened to RY in English. I do not understand your point.
Can I have an opinion on the Balkans without understanding any of the languages? Yes, I can. Can I have an opinion on the rightness of the wars? Yes, I can. Do you have to agree with me? Obviously, you do not. But I am not a Muslim, as I have been accused of being; nor a Clintonite, as I have been accused of being. I have been a military intelligence officer and I have been a shortwave listener for over 35 years.
By the way, you'd be surprised how much information can be picked up in a 30 minute broadcast; it would take me three pages in my logbook to transcribe everything that was said.
