Just trying to get my ego back in shape at someone else's expense, after all that ungrammatical on-air stumbling I did today...

True, the woman who did the interview called me later, to thank me. I fell all over myself apologizing. She knew what I was talking about, but pointed out that they learned 100% more about Dagestan than they knew before, which was 0%. So, I did get something across, I suppose, beyond the impression that I can't speak English.
