  Refreshingly honest. And that's probably true for the planet, not just for Russia. You can bet there will be a lot of people using this incident to try to get funding so they can go play while pretending they are going to save the planet at some unspecified future date.

    This was a direct response to a local paper that cited military sources claiming that it was shot down.
