This deserves to be as widely publicized as possible being much too surreal for words. Too bad nobody like Scrappleface thought of making it up in the first place being most deserved of the phrase "you just can't make this stuff up".

 CL¡?ing the cold war, a former citizen of the USSR was on TV, I think on CSPAN. She had worked in the publishing industry in the USSR. She claimed that when Angela Davis' (communist in California) book was translated into Russian, they had to edit out the description of her jail . You see, it sounded too nice, what with being able to view a color TV occasionally, etc.
