That's very nice to know and we can now all sleep soundly knowing the world is in safe hands and that the alternative choice would have been one Mrs. Clinton, which would be equally safe hands.
Think I might start learning Russian. Do they have caves there?
Plenty of caves there. Can I sell you a book?
OZERNAJA CAVE by Jozef Leonovich Zimels 2009 240 pp, many colour photos. Hard bound, glazed boards, in Russian. The book is packed with facts, I am not quite sure where to start. Ozernaja Cave is the second longest gypsum cave in the world and number 13 in world rankings. It is 123 km long [76 miles] and only 8 m deep [26 feet]. Ozernaja means Lake and the cave takes its name from a lake in the cave. The cave is 123 km long network maze, developed in the Neogene gypsum bed. Passages width in the middle part of the cave varies from 30-40 cm in the width to 1 m wide in the upper series. A fine record of 45 years of cave exploration by many generations of cavers.
URALSKIE PESHTERY [THE CAVES OF URALS] by Youri Lobanov 1979 172 pp, illus. A useful guide book. Signed copy. In Russian, HB
H?HLEN AUF DEM TERRITORIUM DE UdSSR by A G Tschikischew 1973 150+21 pp, many surveys. Most Russian caving books are, not surprisingly in Russian. So this German language book on the Caves of the old USSR is quite a find. Needless to say very rare. Only a limited number were ran off on a spirit duplicator, SB In German
