Pravda Evangelism:
    a force for change?

    Pravda, as we used to say back in the pioneering days, is a unique product, a product that deserves, even demands, attention. It calls to its readership as a muezzin calls the faithful to prayer in a minaret. Or is it the other way around? Whatever, Pravda, as you will no doubt come to understand, commands for itself a unique position in the pantheon of publishing. It is used as a draught excluder.

    We spoke to several afficionadoes in the course of preparing this special part-internal, part-external report. Then we disregarded their advice and took a coach trip to Crete, which, the Mediterranean being the way it is, was a bad thing to do. It gets very wet in the deeper parts, you see.

    The following is but a brief excerpt from a recent communication: an open forum in which the motion, proposed by JK, was "do we really care?" - this title referring to the announcement of new issues of Pravda and sister publication, ElektroPravda:

    > I've obviously been mistaken for someone who gives a damn.

    Ah ha! You are one of those people who doesn't then? Isn't that cute.... What a sad inditement of the people on the internet when people stop caring about valuable services provided by others for free! I can say that a lot of work goes into ElektroPravda, and doubtless the same, if not more goes into Pravda. The design of Pravda is a joy to behold, let alone the articles...

    (edit)

    > people
    > with 'lives'.

    When you say life, do you mean people who sit in front of a computer all day, like you obviously do, reply to informational eMails with insults. What a life you must live! Not laughing at fun.

    > Or even a sense of humour.

    Oh well, Pravda and ElektroPravda are funny, but obviously for people who are *DIFFERENT*, people who don't subscribe to the normal sense of humour as spread by Satan and fake penguins.

    > People who don't read

    I do.

    > (Elektro)Pravda.

    Oh right. IT IS FUNNY! HONEST.

    So you can see that, when it comes to Pravda, the passions run deep, deeper in fact than the mediterranean at its deepest and darkest.
