Ladies and gentlemen,

It was a huge disappointment to me to learn from a friend, and not from this
list, that there was a _full page_ ad (A11) in the New York Times on 23 May
that had as its heading:

It's time to learn Russian!

There were five lines of text (big block print) in Russian, which were
kindly translated:

(YUKOS is the only Russian company among the world's top ten oil and gas
majors)

That's all there was, there weren't no more.

We were supported by the cold war before. Surely we can see that this butter
is better than guns.
