If you look at my original response to the OP, I mentioned corruption in education and the topic of 'trust', which I thought was rather an interesting topic. There was also the stuff about getting into the country, as I'm sure you remember. Instead of developing these ideas, we have three pages of VM defending his thesis that 'all Russian apartments have one lovingly hand-crafted wooden (palace) door' .. well I won't even bother it's not worth it
Developing what? Your lies? All we hear from people like you is the russians drink vodka bla bla bla the russians are corrupt bla bla bla the russians this the russians that. look, matey, i'm sick to my gut of your silly western propaganda and so are most russians on this board. besides, no one's putting a gag in your mouth (wish i could do that though) so please, discuss whatever lies you like, no one's standing in your way. aaaaah, i think i know why you're suddenly so silent about that - it's one thing to come forward with a few cock and bull stories about corruption at schools and it's quite another to actually back up your lies with hard evidence. go on, keep scraping the bottom.

Three pages, yeah. We have three pages of notorious liers posting their negativism about the country some love dearly.
