[edit] Monster template

I am strongly against adding the huge templates into articles about villages and towns. They do not bring much of value (all the data are/will be already in proper categories, they consume huge amount of screen estate and make the small articles looking like a joke. The fact that other Wikipedias use such monsters is shame, not a reason to propagate it futher. Pavel Vozenilek 16:07, 27 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Absinthe

It will be interesting to see what you say about absinthe on the Czech page. Will you be able to find any evidence that Absinth has a real history in the Czech republic and did people like Hills make absinthe before 1990? Alanmoss 14:37, 11 July 2006 (UTC)

On the czech page is just stub about absint (czech name :) and if I´m looking on the article, there is only basic info about (small about how absint work, that it is hallucinogenic and you can make you crazy and about origin) but if you want I´ll looking on the czech pages on the i-net and find more info about czech absint and its history. So give me some time and I´ll find you the answers. --Chmee2 16:19, 11 July 2006 (UTC)
It seems that absithe arrived in Czech country first time somewhere in Napoleons wars, when French soldiers took absinthe by them to Czech country. Hills Company writte on his page [1] that absint was produced by company since 1920 by Albín Hill in Czechoslovakia. The biggest production was by Second world war, where the alcohol was for allocation/civilian rationing??? (small paper which you have for food, clothes, etc when the war is, I don´t know how is right in english so sorry :) )because 70% could be dilute into more portion. Then thera are any info about ages after and next info is from 1990 when Radomil Hill started destiled absint again by request of ing. Boháče ze Slavonic.
Absint, which is produce in Czech in this day, is almost without thujon (hallucinogenic element) because czech law, we must use other manufacture way - it is not soak in alcohol but in the hot water, where is thujon insoluble, so to absinth are comming just aroma essences. So czech absint has an effect by alcohol (around 50-72%) and not by thujon :(
Today is in Czech republic many company which produce absint. How you writte company Hills Jindřichův Hradec[2] was number one in the producing of absint after velvet revulucion but today lost there position because absint which there produce is poor for thujon ( just 1 mg/l) but it is still number one in the cheap pubs and absinth gurmans are saying that this absint is not the best one on the czech market. The strongest czech abnsint is now propably produced by company L´OR Special Drinks [3] which produced some of bottle which has 35 mg/l of thujon. I find on the czech govermment page that [4] that it is legal produce absint with 10 mg of thujon on 1 kg of goods (for alcohol drikns wiht more then 24% of OH) so the producer writte on his page that it was fight (in the context it seems probably with czech law). Next one producers are FRUCO-SCHULTZ, Šebor etc.
About czech custom of drinking absint and history of this, I didn´find nothing.
PS: the King of Spirits GOLD (70% alcohol; 100 mg thujon/l) is illegal in the Czech republic but you can by [www.absintshop.com] but it is not produce for Czech market. --Chmee2 17:25, 11 July 2006 (UTC)

Very interesting. It would be great to get real evidence that Hills produced and sold absinthe between 1920 and 1945 but I am not sure that there is any evidence. Do you - any of your friends - have grandparents who remember drinking absinth in this period? Rationing is the right word: any evidence that absinth was produced or was it just spirits? Who or what is "ing. Boháče ze Slavonic?" Your comments on all this will be usefl on the main absinthe page. Alanmoss 19:42, 11 July 2006 (UTC)

ing. Boháče ze Slavonic is a person which is conected by re-origin of absint after velvet revulucion. [5] - there writte, than he was owner of cottage/hotel/pub Besídka (holiday center of Prag´s theater Sklep on South Bohemia region). He was customer of Radomil Hill. He allways buy some special drinks from him and one day he asked him, if he is able prepare absint. After one week he found on the table one bottle of absint. In the fisrt time it was possible to buy just in cottage Besídka near Slavonice. Absinth was found there by actors of theater Sklep which took this drink to Prag....... I found this article on few pages, but I´m not able to say, which is just a kind of urban legend or if is it true.
In some interview with Radomil Hill (70) he describes history of his company : "My father has clued in the recipe of absint from old Judish man in Opava (he forget his name). He worked from him for some time and after he opened own wine-store in Brušperk near Ostrava and after liqueur-factory which was name Hill´s Liquere (the origin firm mourir after nationalisation 48). I, his soon (Radomil), when I grow up, went to liquery school to Prag and after to town Mělník where was (is?) vinicole school. After end of study I opened own factory and had good time. In 1948 (czech communist revolution and nationalisation of private domaine) communist ramassered my factory and I hade to remove to Jindřichův Hradec where I found job such as driver in Fruty company (started 1950). He worked in Fruty company for 40 years and because there know it that he was liquerer, there gave him still better and better position. He finished on the position manager of the produce (because he was "capitalist" before 48, he never could be directeur of Fruty company. After velvet revolution he demander of restitution his factory and in 1990 he was again owner and director of his factory. He started produce many kind of liqueres.
Hills produced and sold absinthe between 1920 and 1945 - I try to find answers somewhere, but it will take a time ;) --Chmee2 10:26, 12 July 2006 (UTC)

I think your comments are very interesting. Can I copy and paste them to the main English language absinthe discussion page? Other people there will probably have some questions for you. If we can have a good Wikipedian based in the Czech rep who can do some digging as to what really happened, it could be very informative .. Alanmoss 16:09, 12 July 2006 (UTC)

why not :-) if my english will be passable for request the questions :) I´ll try to answer --Chmee2 16:38, 12 July 2006 (UTC)

I've posted a reference to you on the main [absinthe talk page]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Absinthe. That's probably the best page to compare our views with other people too. Alanmoss 14:32, 14 July 2006 (UTC)
