William, big upheavil coming alright...Yeltsin situation will surely be spinned both ways..godd he showed that he is in charge and not going to hurt Western interests.. Let me give you my spin 1. Russia is a basket case Yeltsin or no Yeltsin 2. Change of the ministers is old Russian tradition (Stalin of course would shot them, but reason is the same) 3. Yeltsin's way of saying I am not ill, certainly not dead despite years of drinking terrible Russian vodka and I am going to show all these newly proclaimed "intelectuals" who is in charge around here.. 4. "Around here" of course means Moscow, as the rest of the huge country does not really care who is a minister and why.. But still the event is very important...if Yeltsin's silly and entirely unconsequencial moves lead to the cries of reassurances, even from Clinton in Africa that everything is "cool" imagine when this very, very ill man would get another "virus" I want to remind to the history buffs that four former Soviet leaders before Gorbachev (Bresnev, Ustinov, Chernenko, Andropov) all "misteriously" died within 6 months after contracting "upper respiratory infection"
