    I’m glad they changed the name, but otherwise I don’t see too much difference. The nice clock is gone, and now there’s some sort of memorial at the far end of the square…

    Did the war come through there at all?

    The war came through, the revolution didn`t.

    Maybe I didn`t understand Doug Muir`s comment. I mean, we came through the war, while the revolution (in many ways) still lasts.

    I think he probably meant to ask if there was any fighting or bombing in that part of the world.

    Our towns survived the war practically intact.Maybe the occupation wasn`t so terrible as we have always been taught, after all?
    What does it mean???

    Intact? Maribor was bombed almost daily by the allies and nearly totalled.
