Comment Forget Hungry and Chuck Norris (Score 0, Redundant) 554
It is a sad state of affairs when the technical people of the most powerful and mega-nuclear-trigger happy country on Earth cannot tell the difference between "Hungry" and "Hungary" and haven't a clue to where it is.
I say this as a Hungarian (magyar) who was born and lived in United States, but moved to Hungary for good.
Yes... I live a few kilometers from the said bridge.
But if the slashdoters wish to vote for a worthy name for the said bridge why not try this:

The second or third menu on the left will give you a long list of radio buttons.
(try them all, until you see the long list)
Forget Chuck Norris. Why not vote for something from our history:
Vajk-Istvan Hid (my recomendation)
Vajk/Istvan was our first catholic king of Magyarorszag - 1006 years ago.
Vajk was his pagen name, Istvan his christian name,
he gave up the first and assumed the second.
The bridge is realy two bridges because it is so long.. so the name is fitting.
If the slashdotters feel up to it, lets push this bridge name up the list.
Give it a try (when the server is responding again - 1-3 days)
Ja..and did you know that Hungary is a nation wealthy in foodstuff.
Throughout history there has never been an extended period of hunger.
There was always plenty of food, and the weather was kind too.
Plus it was THE wealthiest nation in Europe several times in history.
