Re: Landing team 08.05.14
Sorry, I don't want to talk about politics, especially in that mailing list. In any case, USSR helped to Europe. I don't want to say, that communists are good or bad, but they are better, than Nazi. 9th May (in Europe - 8th, but because of another reason - when agreement was signed, in Europe was May 8th, in USSR - 9th) is very important day. Maybe, not for all, but, I hope, for somebody from list.
