New Russians and The Da Vinci Code in San Francisco

Shane has something to say about the former.

I would add that:

1. The guys in question may have been just members of some Russian sport team - impossible to distinguish these days.
2. It may have been a good idea to skip The Da Vinci Code altogether, and, as an additional bonus, to spare that harrowing experience.

And re the wish not to have them in San-Francisco - too bad, it is called cultural exchange nowadays. I mean, it is still better than the Cold War. Marginally, at least.
