Dasha, Russia isn't third world, it's old world. It's just unfortunate that you had a form of government that reduced the country to third world status for sixty odd years. Blame Marx, Lenin, Stalin, Khrushchev and Brezhnev.<br/><br/>I'd suggest blaming Trotsky too, except he was bumped off by Lenin.<br/><br/>Reia, as we don't know what country you live in it's pretty hard to agree or disagree.
