krillehog: This whole situation is a bit scary.
The current local issues have got nothing on the Cold War. I don't have much time or respect for Putin, but he's not a complete psycho - I don't have the fear that nukes are going to start raining down.

krillehog: We might need change in the world but I don't think war/conflicts is the way to change things.
I don't think any sane person would wish to start a war now. That includes Putin.

Re Sweden. I'm for equality and like the idea of gender neutrality but that might be taking it a bit too far (if it's true)...

Wow, that's plain ridiculous - they'd rather have an undignified male lion on their coat of arms? I'm surprised they didn't also ask for the removal of the mane ;-P

You guys better worry about EA annexing GOG. :P
Anyway, what is the reason for Russia to annex Poland? They have tons of oil? Gas? Uranium? Or there are millions of russians, pursued by it's own nationalistic self-proclaimed government? Because just GOG is not enough. :P
I have no doubt that you would like an annexation, which results in doubling of your wages and pension (i'm not talking about freedom to speak your native language on the public without fear of being beaten by western ukrainian nazis for this). And this is what crimeans got.

Well, nobody here is beaten for speaking any language as far as I know :)
(but to tell the truth, many neutral and pro-Russian Internet posters are acused of being Russian agents - happened to me too, for a pretty neutral opinion :))
But I'm curious - how being annexed would double our wages?

You mean crimeans wages? That's simple. Because wages in Russia are two times higher than in Ukraine. And russian pension system/economics is different too. So, it is what it is. Life in Russia is better than life in Ukraine.
Lots of ukrainians work in Russia in fact. They send ~30 billions dollars each year to their's families, based in Ukraine.
