      Yeah pictures of a virgin nation untouched by western exploits. Education was well above the American standard when i showed my mother my 6th grade homework we both laughed because its almost like puzzles for retards. In Russia 5-6 grade taught comprehensive biology and chemistry 7-8 calculus and physics. Here in high school we played charades and put on little plays for English classes how pathetic and sad.
