   I remembered a USSR movie about the Civil war in Russia after the 1917   
   Revolution. It is not not connected to Verne directly, but however made me   
   smile. A prison guard guards an arrested person and reads some book. The   
   latter asks him, "Are you reading? "I am reading 'The Capital', by Karl Marx."   
   "Wow, interesting?" "Yes, the cramp things I skip, but the proletarian gist I   
   view." ;-)   
      
   Bye, Dallas!
