Very unpopular in the Soviet Union but well liked across the world.

Without him, Europe would not be like it is now. Specially Germany would not be reunited the way it happened.
One of my sons was born the same day as "Gorby", so we gave him the name: "Michalis" which is also a Cypriot name....

UH? Well, Gorby was 91, so that must make you about 120 or 130? And there was I thinking that I may be the oldest contributor to this forum! :-) :-)

So what! My son was born on March 2nd, the same day as Gorby, so your speculations about my age are wrong... :lol: :lol:

I disagree many times with articles from CMail, however this one today hit the nail on the head:
