  "Lack of advertising leaves a weird hole in the urban landscape.  You 
think, 'What could be uglier than billboards?'  But have you ever looked 
behind them?  In Communist countries you don't get to see the giant pictures 
of the cars, boats, and pretty faces that fill people's dreams.  You just see 
the people and where they live."
