Retired Colonel Is Tried in U.S. As Spy for KGB

Well I don't think that Trofimoff is proletarist I have read about Trofimoff but he seems to be just a head of an iceberg,but he wasn't involved in espionage directly but his friend was an representative of GRU in Germany but according to the traditions of that organization they do not conntact with their "moles"

[Leningorsk]

Even if he is innocent and had no direct dealings with espionage for the Soviet Union, I am willing to bet he will be tried, convicted and dealt punishment. People are starting to realize more and more that spies still exist these days.

Dear Lennie:

Spies still exist in this enlightened age? Say it ain't so! Gentlemen do not read other gentlemen's mail!!!

[Leningorsk]

Yes, we know. But they do not exist in the large span they have had in previous times, such as the extensive intrusion the Soviet Union had on the American, English and Canadian Atomic Bomb program.

And I am not 'Lennie', 'Lenni', 'Lenin' or 'Gorsk'. I am nicknamed Nightshade.

[TAP]

Was just wondering WHY DIDN'T YOU CHOOSE NIGHSHADE AS USER NAME?

[Leningorsk]

How about because I AM from Leningorsk and because I thought people would see my signature and think 'Gosh, maybe I should call her by the name she puts down there for that reason.'

[TAP]

Everybody calls each other by their user name, this would be an exception; also, a signature is usually NOT YOUR ID, can you imagine people call Mr. Mastodon, Hello, clever monkey? but if you request it, then people should call you by you signature name (Should we call you "Glorious nightshade"?), but what about people who did not see your request? I think you should go what is customary, and save everybody any trouble...
