Now they use Mercedes
The Zil, preferred limousine of Stalinist dictators everywhere, is on its last tires, according to the BBC. I actually saw one of these when I was in Prague in 1993. It was freaking huge. It's amazing to see how few of these were assembled even when business was good.

What do you mean there is no cat?
"You see, wire telegraph is a kind of a very, very long cat. You pull his tail in New York and his head is meowing in Los Angeles. Do you understand this? And radio operates exactly the same way: you send signals here, they receive them there. The only difference is that there is no cat."
- Albert Einstein, explaining radio
There used to be a cat
