      Hi! Alexander,              On 10/06/2014 01:43 PM, you wrote:               ak> An elderly woman lost her purse while shopping in the mall.

The woman opened her purse and said        ak> to the boy: "How strange, before I lost it there was only one banknote 5        ak> thousand roubles, but now there are 5 banknotes 1 thousand roubles each."              (We might say here that there are "5 banknotes of 1 thousand roubles each".)               ak> "Do you know," said the boy, "last time when I found a purse its owner        ak> had no small money to pay a reward."              :) We call this 'small change'. We also carry some small change in our       pockets, purses or wallets. Mostly coins, as we no longer have any small       denomination banknotes less than AUD$5.               ak> The bears who met people think that people live in the trees.              Do bears really think of things such as this? That is impressing human       expression upon an animal. From my experience, I tend to think that bears       might consider: 1. do they run fast?; 2. can they hurt me?; or, 3. do they       taste good? And, no, I do not hunt bears. :)               ak> Things unheard in the war history have happened after Russia's        ak> aggression into Ukraine.
