Russia, having had its share of revolutions in the past, has apparently decided to forgo the green one. My girlfriend's friend keeps a model GMC Suburban in a prized spot on his bookshelf, dreaming of the day when he can load his mountain bikes in the back and take of for the Crimea (or more likely spend hours every day snarled in Moscow's gridlock). A tall, blonde bombshell, employed as a General Director at an energy consultant firm, told me the other day, "I vould rather be sit in my car three hours and not moving, than go by metro." And judging by the general lockdown of traffic by 6 p.m, quite a few others share her sentiment.
