OK. BTW, are many people in the UK interested in these programs, or your attitude is kind of unique, because of your interest in Russian literature and Russian/Ukrainian friends? I wouldn't say that an average Russian knows much about UK really. (Have I told you of my talks with some people...

I see, I see... He likes to be tortured? For weeks? Maybe he is trying to say he feels himself... err... in love with you? BTW, I have another torture technique for you. (Too bad it is not nearly as interesting as what you described, but way too deadly, I think). I invented it today...

Ohhhh... Sssorrryyy... :D

Thanks. I think there will be more on Khodorkovsky, after the program was released. As to Berezovsky... I heard this thing many times about him giving power to Mr. Putin, encluding coming from Berezovsky's own lips: "and when Yeltsin collapsed, usually after lunch, Berezovsky choose Putin...

Hi Hermione, nice to hear from a fellow Russian-speaker! Hope you will like it here. I must admit that the list of the books you have read looks quite convincing, and it seems you manage well that HP site of yours... Too bad my daughter is way lazyer than you, being older by several months...

I see. So I do not think they will issue such a program on DVD, and even if they do - I would not have known how to obtain one... OK, I could order it and arrange payment and delivery, say, by UPS... It is possible it should be confiscated here, as our customs is very keen sometimes on author's...

Don't know really... My personal opinion is that nearly everybody would break down very fast if put into an unusual situation where he/she cannot control what's going on, but is effectively and sometimes cruelly controlled by somebody else. So the difference is rather in the time one need to...

Oh, sorry, mistah, I can see my mistake now. Please do not look down on us, youngsters... :D

Oh, how long have I waited to post on Mr. Brown and his works... Sorry, folks, those who like him very much, you should not read this, maybe. I read DVC, Angels & Demons and Digital Fortress. Really, the reason for reading three of Mr. Brown's books in a row was that I bought them together...

Of course that creature was a dead pilot. But the kids imagined there were something mighty & evil there, as kids often do. But really the only evil that was present on the island were the kids themselves...

Yes, sure - we had a Transwaal swimming - recreation complex in Moscow disintegrated two years ago or so, with many people killed and the architect claiming that Chechen terrorists must had taken part in it, blowing away one of the columns, and FSB covering up for them. After everything had...

I see. It seems this month is special: we had a swimming pool collapsing on the swimmers again, several major natural gas explosions (I heard they had one in the States too), poison coming from China after their chemical factory exploded etc. People seem to be too tired to do things right...

Oh, I am surely talking crap. BTW, what about the smoke where you are? They talk here about the smoke being not hazardous, but that people are advised not to stay outdoors for long and keep windows closed...

Wow... It surely would appear that imaginative abilities have gained much over the recent years... I think you are right, and after a day or two it wouldn't be the same terror and pain for the unfortunate person... Though there are people who keep victims in underground pits for years, without...

Of course - one always choose what seems to be best for him/her, and adjusts one's life in order to have that... And almost always the choice is wrong... :D

Should be quite young. :D

Yes, our dachas... Really, we, city people, have three variety of country property: 1. Cottage. Usually it is a big house or houses, quite expensive and well equipped, sitting on a nice peace of land, situated not too far from the city; 2. Dacha, there are very wide range of dachas, very...

Oh, surely one doesn't need to use them actually in order to imagine them in operation or to discuss them. BTW, I remember how some other girlfriend told me how they tried to imagine the most painful way of killing a person, and her offer was to use a road-roller, driving it very slowly from...

I think there are situations when people really cannot find time to read. For example, if I used my own car to drive to work and back, I wouldn't have a spare minute on my working days, and I am engaged in toooo many activities on my weekends to have enough time for reading books. I usually read...

My reading place... Hum... That's on the way to my office or back, staying in a corner of a metro car. This is about the only way I can read I use for last twelve years or so. A cosy chair or a sunny meadow is great, but somehow I am too busy doing something useful whenever these things are...
