I'm willing to bet O'Rourke has seen at least a hundred times more Soviet architectural styled buildings than Claude has. O' Rourke has made at least two trips to Russia (at least one of them back when it was still the U.S.S.R.) and wandered over into East Berlin as soon as the wall came down. He's also done stories on Poland, Albania, Bosnia, and pretty much every other country that was part of the Soviet bloc.



Your little discussion about Soviet-era buildings was less than fascinating, I just found it hilarious anyone would refer to that fuck-up as an authority on anything. Just for starters, his writing on the Bosnian war is militantly ignorant. He's the definition of a lightweight.
