2 children of the Cold War visit Russia House, Olympics 2010

The line took 1 hour and 1 half and a little extra. Scary Putin types let us gain entrance, sprightly young men and festooned young women awaited us inside. Also inside, the kids breakdancing to James Brown. awesome! Exhibits about Russian enterprise and financial mightiness; banking, natural gas flames, what am I missing? Farm equipment and AK-47/Kalashnikovs not visible. I did open a door painted to look like the rest of the exhibit's wall, and found, a kitchen! A secret Russian kitchen! The Russia House was in Vancouver's Science Center. I think Vancouver gets it back after Olympics. The shiny red and white track suits were a beacon on these dark days. If only the Russian press were free to wear shiny suits, or look at them or write about them . i think I am being followed. please send help.
