 Dear fellow cypherpunks,

 I have nothing against persons involved in the whole this project and,
frankly, I appreciate _titanic_ work they've done in collecting,
cataloging and publishing all these documents. V. Bukovsky is really
well-known and respected person in ex-Soviet block, BUT... Before
trusting such papers, consider how many of them are fake - KGB is famous
to make false documents. Ask anybody who live in Eastern block how many
people recently (well, in 1989-1995) were groundlessly accused to
collaborate with former secret services (Stasi in GDR, KGB in USSR etc).
