    It IS russian. When I typed that is showed normally. However, it shows crap now. Maybe it is some bug with the encoding.

    Yep, just figured it out. Sir Bel and eggman :D just go to the encoding parameter of your browser and set it to Cyrillic "Windows-1251". Worked for me. :D

    [​IMG] OK, Modjahed, I can now read it, but my russion is too long gone and faded, for me to still understand it. So please (with sugar coating): translate the damn thing!
    (and yes, it had better be worth reading, for all the trouble).

    LOL yeah, setting the encoding to Cyrrilic (Windows) or 1251 should solve the problems, for those who can read cyrrilic. Sorry for doing this to u people, it was just too funny to read that "Pushkin rocks".

    For those who wonder who in the hell this Pusking guy is, he's one of the greatest Russian romantic poets of all time. Has a really kewl bio too, for those who's interested :) Basically English slang and Russian poetry don't mix very well, kinda like that "Jesus was so cool" song. A very entartaining combination to a tuned ear :)

    If u care to read Puskin in English Fat Egg and I had posted couple of his poems on the board, well doh, if u reading this thread :) Mine was in the country section though...

    If u care to read more, u can find him on the web, if u can't but really really want to I can post some links. Better yet learn Russian and read the original :D As a bonus u'll apreciate the difference between cryptic and cyrrilic.

    It is not what you SAY, but what was HEARD.
    It is not what you SHOW, but what was SEEN.
    It is not what you MEANT, but what was UNDERSTOOD.
