          And a roller coaster known in US as the "Russian Mountains" is still called in Russia an "American Mountains".

            You asked for that. And it was you who started that, NOT ME.

            Here is the picture of the Challenger tragedy:


            You want me to continue that grave dance?

                  • Yeah. It's a good start. And as Sting said: Russians love their children too.

                    Does it mean you don't want to nuke us anymore?

                    If only our two nations could trust each other the world be a much better place, really.

                        We elect them, unfortunately. Thus share the responsibility for their actions.

                            I suppose it's a requirement that we have a terminator thread on page 1 at all times.

                              Yeah, right, and that were Americans who won WW2, not Russians, right?

                              I guess as an ordinary dumbass American you need some non-American education. Here is a lesson from rude Siberian jerk.

                              Radio
                              Television - first TV-patent.
                              Television
                              Television
                              Compare it with the size of the Russian wiki about him. American education, my assJuly 26 1928 – the first officially documented television transmission ever made.
                              Television summary:
                              The first patent for the electronic television we use now was granted to Boris Rosing, Professor of the Saint Petersburg Technology Institute, who filed a patent application “The way of electric transfer of image” on July 25, 1907. However, he only succeeded in transfer of stationary image at a distance - in his trial on May 9, 1911. For the first time in history, moving image was transmitted at a distance on July 26, 1928 in Tashkent by inventors Boris Grabovsky and I. F. Belyansky. Though the statement of the Tashkent tram trust, based hereupon the trials were conducted, gives evidence of roughness and vagueness of the images received, the Tashkent trial should be considered the moment of birth of modern television.
                              As for satellites, does word Sputnik ring the bell?
