When the testimony (and even the facts themselves) get messy, filtered through

the teenagers (of whom massive numbers were getting very temporarily rounded up
at protests) and the older university professors that were teaching us crazy
gringos how to speak Russian. The professors were *much* more conservative, as
they had grown up in a time when things were much more controlled, so small acts
of rebellion could make a big difference. The teenagers disagreed...
