There's a Prazak Quartet 50 CDs on Praga (1992-2018).
What sort of players are the Prazak, are they
HIP and strip chamber music of all romance
and sentiment or are they different from the
others?

Eastern, Germany is central.
Note that it appears to come as CDs, but don't see
anything about the SACDs that individual releases
had.

There can be no doubt Pluted's intent was to
deliberately insult an entire nation, its people

I'm no expert on European geography, politics,
or the Soviet Union. But to the extent there has
always been the terms Easter, Central and
Western Europe, and France, Germany, Spain,
etc. or Western and Poland, Russia and what
not Eastern, wouldn't Czechoslavakia HAVE to
be Central. Just sayin'.
Wikipedia says this, FWIQ:
Following World War II, large parts of Europe that
were culturally and historically Western became
part of the Eastern bloc. Czech author Milan
Kundera (emigrant to France) thus wrote in
1984 about the "Tragedy of Central Europe"
in the New York Review of Books.[48] The
boundary between the two blocks was called
the Iron Curtain. Consequently, the English term
Central Europe was increasingly applied only to
the westernmost former Warsaw Pact countries
(East Germany, Poland, Czechoslovakia, Hungary)
to specify them as communist states that were
culturally tied to Western Europe.[citation needed]
This usage continued after the end of the Warsaw
Pact when these countries started to undergo
transition.

There can be no doubt Pluted's intent was to
deliberately insult an entire nation, its people
and its culture. This was no accidental error.
I do not believe it was Pluted's intent was to
insult people in this case; he just did have a
wrong notion of things - why? I don't know.

I'm no expert on European geography, politics, or the Soviet Union.
But to the extent there has always been the terms Easter, Central and
Western Europe, and France, Germany, Spain, etc. or Western and Poland, Russia and whatnot Eastern, wouldn't Czechoslavakia HAVE to be
Central. Just sayin'.
Wikipedia says this, FWIQ:
Following World War II, large parts of Europe that were culturally and historically Western became part of the Eastern bloc. Czech author Milan Kundera (emigrant to France) thus wrote in 1984 about the "Tragedy of
Central Europe" in the New York Review of Books.[48] The boundary
between the two blocks was called the Iron Curtain. Consequently, the
English term Central Europe was increasingly applied only to the
westernmost former Warsaw Pact countries (East Germany, Poland, Czechoslovakia, Hungary) to specify them as communist states that were culturally tied to Western Europe.[citation needed] This usage continued after the end of the Warsaw Pact when these countries started to undergo transition.

Bob HarperBob... I have not "utterly" misunderstood what you wrote. The only thing I misunderstood was that I thought you denied the fact that Czechia was considered central european.
Conveniently - as a Christian who reads the Bible ignores all the points that would made one doubt its veracity - you ignore all the points I made first:
1) That you are being utterly idiotic in censoring yourself wrt "pissing" - why use this in the first place if you end up censoring yourself... be open to criticism Bob... this behaviour was quite idiotic...this is your right my dear friend. And it is my right to do otherwise.
2) That I am not interested in having an "intellectual" discussion with you Bob... or with Frank... and that you two can have fun your way, and we have fun our way. So I actually did get your point; you wanted a "civilised" discussion about this topic -
Seems you didn't get my points... tomatohead!
