Once upon a time I had to review the resume of a fellow who'd been a Soviet defector.

You sure do like to drag threads into totally unrelated directions, don't you?

That Rossi could be some sort of soviet defector is far more ridiculous than anything I've seen claimed here.

Or are you trying to suggest that people in secret re-identity programs go out and spend a year turning themselves into international celebrities with news coverage in dozens of major publications?

How about this complex, vast conspiracy theory: After 35 years, he got the date mixed up.

NOt at all ~ that was a trap to see if you'd note that missing parts can show up like a sore thumb to somebody.

Yet, other people just cruise on by.

STUFF HAPPENS.
