	re: kissell's question on russian intent, how about: "We will
	bury you!" by Nikita Kruschev about 1955, or (slight paraphrase
	perhaps), "The Capitalists will sell us the rope we hang them
	with," from an earlier leader (Stalin, Trotsky, Lenin, ??)

I've read that Khrushchev's statement has been misinterpreted in the U.S.
It is not a threat; rather, it means "we will be around after you are dead".
And the other quote is more an opinion on short-sighted capitalists.
