    No idea of the veracity of these.

    The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

        @George-K

        Isn’t that just wonderful, Russians will get to go back to Soviet style dentistry. If nothing else it’ll toughen up the post USSR generation.

        My spouse has spent the last 27 years trying to correct the dentistry of her first 24 years. It’s still a work in progress.

        Elbows up!

          @Renauda if you recall, the motivation of Marco Raimius (a Lithuanian, I might add) in "The Hunt for Red October" to defect was the horrible medical care that his wife received under Soviet medicine.

              Everything is going according to plan. A very crazy and stupid plan.

              Education is extremely important.

                  I would hope the western companies can be compensated with Russian central bank assets.

                      One would think that likely.
