Uncalled-for/ The Ukraine

[David Powelstock]

Reality check: a thread originating as a discussion of the (possibly)
colonial implications of using the definite article with "Ukraine" now
threatens to re-ignite the Revolutionary War, perhaps this time with the
roles reversed.  Did I miss anything?  I want to record this accurately for
posterity.
