Ten things you didn't know about Russia

[Andrew Jameson]

Dorogie SEELANGovtsy,
I've been asked to write a not-too-serious lecture for the Annual General
Meeting of a society concerned with Russian and Soviet studies. I'm calling
it "Ten things you didn't know about Russia". Such things as: St Cyril
didn't create the Cyrillic alphabet etc. etc.
I'm wondering if you have any unusual or bizarre facts about Russia which
you would like to share?
Grateful for any ideas!
Yours with best wishes
