re: #252 Dr Lizardo

The one bunch there I truly feel sorry for is pensioners. If this keeps up, they’re going to find in the near future that their monthly pension will buy them a half-dozen eggs, a stale loaf of bread, and a small tub of bargain-basement, off-brand margarine.

When I got to Moscow in the spring of 1992, the rate was 120 to the Dollar. By the time I left in late 1993, it was nearly 700. They eventually lopped off two zeros and “reset” it as seven to the dollar.

Shall we start a pool on when they get back up to 700?
