The first child we had will be graduating high school this year and
then attending the University of St. Petersburg in Russia. Very bright
kid. After his first visit he went home and began taking English five
days a week in school. He also talked his parents into paying the
English teacher to come to his house one night a week for tutoring. He
absolutely loved this country.



The young people in the whole region are becoming unisolated by lots of new
TV stations in the region. There is MAD TV:

which is just as American and British as MTV....and FREE on the net!

There are many others. My little Linux tablet has over 600 stations across
the planet from broadband. About 20 are Russian.

The rapper crappers are on Mad TV as I type this...(c;
