For sure it was not. I never moke any language. For example, I was
never able to understand, why so many people find it funny that many
Chinese or Vietnamese names in Russian language sound like obscenities.
So what? I bet there is a language where my Russian name Lev will be an
obscenity ;-). My post was intended as a joke purely - sorry if somebody
understood it as a moking of Spanish or Dr. Pauling.
Regards,
Lev.
