Yeah, it's absolutely hilarious making fun of the Russian space
program. I mean just consider all the wonderful permanently manned
space stations that other countries have.
Oh yeah, they don't have any.
Personally I find the idea of spending a bazillion dollars of
tax-payers' money to put some 100 year old fart-knocker in space for a
few days as a publicity stunt, much more amusing.
