My Hobbies

• Computer and electronic circuits related projects. My first big project was a HI-FI power amplifier back in 1987 during the secondary school years. I use it since then without any problem.

• Bicycling. I have had a Woodlands MTB for a long time. It is a little bit outdated now but we have had a lot of fun together. I have injured several times during some of the wildest trips.

• Music. Everything from the early Depeche Mode and from Cure to Bruce Springsteen and Suzanne Vega. I like the Hungarian underground music of the 80s and the early 90s too.

  I was introduced to country music in Nashville. Alison Krauss has become my favorite. Her music is a kind of bluegrass. She sings and plays the fiddle (violin). Her band is called Union Station, those guys are pretty good too.

  I must confess to having a pretty bad reputation among music teachers back in primary school but I have been changed a little bit. Now I like listening to classical music but I hate Zoltán Kodály and Béla Bartók.

  If you don't know who they are you are a lucky. They are two Hungarian musician thought to be the best by the official Hungarian classical music experts. I must disagree with these experts.

• Eating. I like the Hungarian, Chinese, Japanese, Mediterranean cuisine and the real American hamburgers and sandwiches. Taste one burger in Fuudrucker's in Nashville and you are never going to go to McDonald's again in your life. An other interesting experience of mine was a lunch in a small restaurant in the China Town of San Francisco. Have you had cooked black mussel in Croatia? You must try that too.

  From my list you can easily realize that I eat everything which is eaten by the locals and does not try some deliberate escape attempts from my plate or any other food container like Chinese Food Paper Box, pan, bowl or palm tree leaves.

• Sci-Fi. Isaac Asimov and Frank Herbert are my favorites. My all time best is the Blade Runner movie and its original book version. It is my movie as Woodie Alan's movie is Casablanca.

• History. My main interest in history are weapon development and the World Wars. The history of the naval, air and electronic warfare and the development efforts in these fields are the most interesting for me.
