Two-thirds of Russians want Vladimir Lenin to be removed from his Red Square mausoleum in central Moscow, a new poll has shown.That's heartening, though the poll doesn't say how many want the old monster dragged from his tomb, put on trial, and then buried in an unmarked grave where his followers can never find him. Perhaps that would have been a bit too apt for Mr. Putin's tastes.

1. No profanity. I maintain the pretense that this is a family-friendly site.
2. Stay on topic. A bit of straying and off-hand commenting is okay, but hijacking the discussion is right out.
3. No ad hominem attacks. Attack the subject, not the other person on the thread and keep the discussion civil.
4. No spamming or commercial endorsements. These get deleted immediately.
Tip: Beware of putting hyperlinks in your comments–especially at the end. For some reason, Blogger interprets these as spam.
Note: Due to the recent spate of anonymous spamming, registration for comments is now required.

That'd be enough to angry up the old monster in whichever circle of Hell he's living in these days, I imagine.
We here in Finland can provide him a nice, cosy, standard size columbarium niche at Helsinki Crematorium with the standard 5*10 cm brass plaque. After all, he gave us the independence.

I bet he'd make pretty good jerky by now. If you didn't mind a little sawdust.
