Re: Centenary

I thought the paintings were excellent. The music, a bit too jolly.

Re: Centenary

Does the sun ever shine in Russia? Such a gloomy place, a good dose of capitalism is what they need.

In 1917 it did occur in October - 25th October to be precise, but that was because Czarist Russia insisted on using the Julian calendar. When the Soviet Government changed the calendar the following year to the Gregorian calendar to aline itself with the rest of the world, 25th October became 7th November - which is why today happens to be the centenary of that momentus event.
