Just funny, I cant' believe it.

The US public has been agitated by reports on Russian troops in Georgia. In particular, residents of southern states are worried that “Soviet troops” have come too close to America’s heart. The matter is, name of the country in the post-Soviet territory is similar to the one of the US state – Georgia.

As a result, US forums are flooded with posts of the following kind: “First Georgia, what’s next? Florida?!” or “Why is the Russian Army in Atlanta?”.

According to sociologists, it is a rarest occasion that any event in the former USSR countries triggers such tremendous public response.
