I read his eulogy today in the papers and I'm beginning to wonder if that man wasn't a dick after all :
- He came from a super-rich family so he wasn't exactly a working-class hero standing up against the evil Commies from Moscow.
- He spent most of his adult life shagging girls and smoking cigs which killed him
- He wrote several plays which haven't left an indelible print on our collective memories. Otoh Milan Kundera is a great talent
- When his wife Olga died from lung cancer he married a blonde bimbo 20 yeasr yopunger than him. Hey Vaclav that's so Hollywood and so little Jean-Paul Sartre!
- He fully supported Bush-43 (yuck!) and his illegal invasion of Iraq
- He was notoriously pro-NATO... as if Uncle Sam will come to save your ass if Putin decides to pay you a visit
- His motto was "Truth and love must prevail over lies and hate." Wow that's deeep! Sounds like a Bono lyric.
And worst of all (in my book) he loved Frank Zappa!

I´ll try to translate: David Gaydecka, promoter, asked RS bassist (Darryl Jones???) if Stones could play Vaclav Havel tribute (today in Prague, Lucerna palace).
Sorry for my bad english...:-(
