Re: The ruble is a serious currency, attempts to rule Russia by law working

Addressing various points raised:

I saw a couple being questioned about photos they were taking in the
London Metro system 2 years ago.

Prices for certain attractions in the UK also varied depending on if
you were a local or not. The museums in Chicago also have discounted
prices for city residents - but we're not Europe, as Gintas would
point out.

My little Saturns have done me just fine, thank you. Traded in the
first one, the second one was totalled in an accident - the trunk was
no more, but I had no injuries beyond the inevitable whiplash-related
owies, which is the whole point of a crumple zone. It had 125,000
miles and was doing just fine. The third one sustained another hit
from behind though at a much lower speed. The Aston Martin that hit
me lost parts - my bumper was scratched. I'm a fan of this American
car company.
