Dear Maurizio Lana,

May I add to your statement that deserves support from all well-intended
persons that I have personally met many true philosophers and orators
among the 'nomadic reindeer herders,' whom you cite by comparison, and
too many cloned idiots imposing themselves to 'co-operate' in academia?

Dear fellow Humanists,

I am awed by the braveness of our Russian colleagues - Maurizio, thank
you for bringing this open letter to our attention!

When I first opened the link Google drive told me that the file no
longer insisted; my heart skipped a beat or two, then I realized I
hadn't copied the full link into my browser. And the reward was doubled
by then finding out that the number of signatories had already risen to
one hundred and thirty nine!Уважаемые российские коллеги, я восхищаюсь и
приветствую ваши смелые действия и честность!

Chris
