Non Fiction in Russian

[Richard Robin]

Applause to Tony Anemone for finding an attested form in answer to the
"non-fiction" query!

SEELANGS gets lots of Kak po-russki riddles. I'll archive any attested finds at
the GW site: http://www.gwu.edu/~slavic/nrs. In that vein can anyone name the
page where Pelevin uses "message" in direct Cyrillic transliteration (minus the
silent e: MESSAG, I'm pretty sure) in Generation P? I'd like to snag that one
as well.
