How does that quote apply to me? Do you even know what that quote means?

It applies to you because you rejected the opinion of a professional  linguist who told you that you were wrong.

I know exactly what it means.

Boru

My ideas are rather revolutionary, so it is to be expected they would at first get rejected, regardless of whether they are more correct than the mainstream historical linguistics.

Well, there are names such as Dugo Selo, which mean basically the same thing.

Now that we have once again discussed names of places in Croatia...I'd like to know if anyone there has a sense of humor because our resident Croatian has none.

Not sure about humour, but the Great Croatian Sarcasm Embargo seems in full force.

No, funny here. Nothing is funny in croatia - as the place names make abundantly clear.

OK, what is funny here? And how exactly do place names make clear there is nothing funny in Croatia?
