Interesting. I have been doing a fair amount of Stalin reading recently, both about the man and by the man (though I find myself a mix of in favor, at odds and then sympathetic), so I might look into it abit further. That being said, I can't imagine being a hardline Stalinist, so many of the policies that he championed in the Central Committee were policies of necessity, and then dealing with the aftermath of those policies of necessity (the consequences of which are often exaggerated, but still not great) that I don't think a blanket support of him is necessarily a good thing (though laying the blame entirely at his feet is just as flawed, if not more so).

Thanks for the info, I appreciate it.
No problem. One thing is certain though, Stalin’s spoon is absolutely vital to the revolution.
