I was at first disappointed to see how little you had to say on Lenin. How could you only give him one sentence? But on further reflection I see (or at least I think I do) what you were trying to do. And I can’t argue that your single sentence pretty much nails it.
you must have a lot of money for your future generations!congratulations!
