More: a computer game fan turns into a virtual gnome, Zemfira Ramazanova and Boris Akunin compare the first two terms of Putin's presidency with the 90s and make a forecast for the nearest future, a well-known athlete from Suzdal inflates a hot-water bottle, "gasterbeiters" tell international fairy tales, modern pioneers share their knowledge of Lenin, philosophers explain the world in only six words, and teddy bears turn inside out to make their way to the world of modern art.
