Thanks, Mikhail, after lots of posts yours was first dealing with
message itself, not with looks and shoes of a messenger. I'm not
informed enough to say something about Khodorkovsky's case. Generally,
I sup****t anything in Russia what turns them more swiss-like, and
dislike anything what turns them more red/brown-like. from that
wiewpoint there was a lot of right words in particular writing.
