something substantive to offer to the dialogue, It is good, don’t spoil
it with personal attacks. If the translation or the translator altered the
imputed source, perhaps you are right, perhaps not, I am in no position to know
that. Both in my blog and in my post today I recognized the possibility that
this could be bombast: (quote)<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<br>
The Russian translation is <b><span style='font-weight:bold'>not </span></b>accurate,
at least not when citing the source of the "news". It's one thing to
say, "sources in military uniform say this", and it's different to
actually claim, "we learn that the Security Council of the <st1:country-region
w:st="on">Russian Federation</st1:country-region> has declared that <st1:country-region
w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Russia</st1:place></st1:country-region> will
create its own Web, in Cyrillic, "completely independent from the
traditional WWW." <br>
<br>
<st1:City w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Milton</st1:place></st1:City>, you
didn't actually learn this thing about the Russian Security Council, because
you couldn't learn it. I, on the other hand, have read the original article
back in July, and have made my research on the actual source, not the ones
"in military uniforms". The Russian (and Bulgarian, for that sake)
media are full with such bombastic headlines, which aim at bringing more
readers, not bringing more news. If I were you, I'd do my survey first, before
claiming so strong statements. But, then, I am not you.<br>
