Well, we have elections soon and I expect to see some parties to have 
the reinstallment of Plutoon and Neptunes in their program because it is 
based on size discrimination. Being all very nationalistic the fear that 
soon Holland willn't be recognised as a state anymore. Personally I 
think that would be a great idea. I still regret that Napoleon lost at 
Waterloo, because if he hand't I wouldn't need so much time reading 
novels from Houellebecq as I do now.
The largest parties all want to improve school education, but none of 
them has thought about introducing the Pali Canon into the highschool 
curriculum. I'll send an them email.
