BTW: The info on the Russian invasion of Georgia came from a Newsweek
article I read while waiting for my flu shot. Just so you know I didn't make
it up.

That's nothing new. Ruskies have been a hard drinking, getting the
heck out of Dodgeski group for quite awhile. Just that they are so big
and the people picking on so small, they can afford to lose 20% of the
Army and still do what they need to do to deflect the unwashed masses at
home.
They have also learned to strike, get people riled and then work
their way back out again intact. Big difference from their little Afghan
adventure.
