Re: How a rocket projectile tried to destroy the collection
Hello--How are you and your countrymen getting along lately? Are you still alive & well, and is your city holding up?
I can't find much news of the war here, because I do not know where to look, but what news has come in has been horrific. Hope that you all win the fight and can begin rebuilding Ukraine.

Why on earth would you ask that? The man's location is right in his profile.Steve wrote: ↑Mon Aug 01, 2022 3:25 pmDo you live in Russia by any chance?VanEpsFan1914 wrote: ↑Mon Aug 01, 2022 11:22 am Hello--How are you and your countrymen getting along lately?

No, and I have about as much use for Russia and its monkey tricks lately as I do for a hole in the head. I don't have a television & use the Internet for very little, so was hoping to check in and make sure we aren't missing a Forum member.Steve wrote: ↑Mon Aug 01, 2022 3:25 pmDo you live in Russia by any chance?VanEpsFan1914 wrote: ↑Mon Aug 01, 2022 11:22 am Hello--How are you and your countrymen getting along lately?

Re: How a rocket projectile tried to destroy the collection
Yes, I was curious as you said you couldn't find much news of the "war" (read: invasion) and didn't know where to look. Obviously in some countries the truth is censored and filtered out of the media, most notably in Russia itself. If you don't use the Internet much and don't have a TV (very sensible) you are putting yourself at a distinct disadvantage. The Russian invasion has been a high priority news item here since the beginning. There is a lot of coverage on the Web. How would you normally expect to receive your news out of interest?VanEpsFan1914 wrote: ↑Mon Aug 01, 2022 5:47 pmNo, and I have about as much use for Russia and its monkey tricks lately as I do for a hole in the head.

I think it's important to not denigrate Russia as a country or its people in general. This is Putin's invasion.

Re: How a rocket projectile tried to destroy the collection
Assuming I was curious enough to dig into the personal profile (which unfortunately I'm not), that's not always a reliable indicator anyway as people change facts about themselves from time to time online to suit their particular circumstances. It was also an ironic question as apart from Russia and China, there aren't many places in the world you can't get up to date news bulletins about the situation.gramophone-georg wrote: ↑Mon Aug 01, 2022 3:57 pmWhy on earth would you ask that?

I understand you didn't pick up on that but it's now been explained he doesn't use the Internet or have a TV. That maybe explains why he "can't find much news".
