Failures

[edit]

> and numerous equipment failures

LOL. Was this page writer somewhat native Russian reader, I'm not even asking for "someone who groks local culture, especially sci-institutes' one?"...

The abstract isn't really descriptive of a book.

Greatest book ever!


>"book contains a large number of references to well-known Russian fairy tales and children's stories (Baba Yaga, Puss in Boots as a sclerotic bard, Zmey Gorynych)"

may I note that the character of the cat is absolutely NOT Puss in Boots, but a parody of the learned cat, teller of tales, from Pushkin's "Ruslan and Lyudmilla"! Lorca2 12:31, 6 August 2007 (UTC)Lorca2[reply]

One more mistake

[edit]

"...which Privalov recognizes to be Korneev himself, because clones never sing or show any emotion." A real cause of recognition was that clones are insensitive to pain, and ability to show emotions was just a cause of suspicion. 91.77.146.87 (talk) 00:56, 14 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

NITWITT is wrong term ))

[edit]

The word "nichevo", which coincides not accidentally with the institute's name of NIIChaVo, is actually a deep-rooted meme in Russian language, somehow being an universal vocal answer of a Russian peasant to any of his problems, including the direst ones.

So I took an attempt to re-translate the institute's name accordingly, so that the result may help to understand this meaning, quite obvious for a Russian reader, but obscure to the English-speaking one.

And the proposed name will be National/Northern University of Sorcery and Universal Theory of Happiness. NUSUTH. The mentioned theory can be found in the text, so the words are not all that empty.
