I'll check out the site, but I really don't understand why one should
look upon the web to see what one has already seen with one's own two
eyes. I have stood at the eternal flame in St. Petersburg, and looked
out on the graves of 600,000 Russians killed in the siege of Lenningrad.
I've walked the halls of Catherine's Winter Palace at Pushkin.

I have walked across the expanse containing only a simple obliske to
mark the dying spot of the Russian peasants who "began" the Bolshevik
Revolution, and were about to be given the land reforms they desired
before the Czar's men convinced him they were there to kill him, and
talked him into opening fire.

I have seen, with my own eyes, St. Petersburg (Lenningrad), a city
designed and built by Italians and other European architects, a city
Hitler said had "no reason to exist." Are you aware that Stalin held
much the same belief?
