relaxed, and contending that is authomatically a loser"




   I am leaving the ambiguit about 'contending' as they wanted; than I
only ment that relaxed presentation does not entitle the commentary in
the NYT what that means economically, but it come down as I will not
even succede in this 'help' .
I am reposting edited now post stollen before editing and masacred on
purpose presenting me poorly (my 'alter egos' do not care abot these
in EU and USA, I  am sure)

Post starts here:

Sample:as they have so many schools in English;
I will first be critical if they are also wrong in something major
before I throw it in here, but  this one alone does:

1. breaks the barier between Anglo-Saxons and Continentals for good

2. makes people comfortable around others due to tremendous
international exposure even without travelling all these 65
countries. Belgium is so small that can expose that the effects of
such school in the small country are different than even the Wison
Schools of  International Studies in USA.
I imagine that each scholars in Belgium get to know and or exchange
science with some of the most motivated scholars around the world.
 ( I suspect that when they sit down they do not tense up becouse
others are that different to them; other reasons being even
more powerful)


I travelled but now I get the intellectuals from around the world
especially both Eu and Conmtnentals stop by at THE R .........

ALLOW EDITING WHILE POSTING IT; PLEASE EXTRAPOLATE - IT IS EASY)
