However, it seems that something was insinuated about the Russian people somehow being inherently somewhat barbarian, judging from the responses. It seems almost silly to have to say it, but Russians are no more barbarian by nature than any of us on the net. Most Russians are not Communists, either. The same is to be said of Czechs, Poles, Hungarians, and others who live in the Warsaw pact nations. I say this from personal experience, for what it's worth...
