I agree with her that communism is a good concept gone horribly wrong. I guess if I had to add something to this project it would be something a little lighter, like the great sports rivalries that sprung up during the cold war. The US/USSR hockey game in the 1980 Olympics, and the fact that the US did not participate in theor all the athletes who defected here or the boycott of the 1980 summer olympics.Patience_Crabstickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16860012969550268614noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1805554874942481868.post-28901230650501754272014-06-17T01:04:02.304-04:002014-06-17T01:04:02.304-04:00I'm duly impressed!
