Thanks, Winston. It helps a lot. And it poses a different "language problem"...
If I recall well, Kundera's book was first published in French (in 84 or
something like that), with the title: "L' insoutenable légèreté de l'être".
And, as you know better than myself, "insoutenable" means "something that
can not be sustained" (does the word "unsustainable" exists in English?) So
I would never imagine that the English translator would translate that as
"unbearable"...
>I still remember almost "meeting" in Berlin...
We really had a "post-OST breakfast meeting". And a "breakfast meeting" is
a meeting, at least in IBM terms, isn't it?
Take care with the bear (Pooh, I mean)
Artur
