Thanks for being the only person in this thread who doesn't joke or talk out of their ass
Quite interesting really and a genius solution (it they don't lie about not stealing your data)
Didn't the Soviets see geniuses and other intellectuals as a danger to society during the time this award was given out? Or are there incidents where this was given to scientists as well? I know you're probably joking, but when I suddenly encounter Lenin's head being used in a positive manner I have to look twice.
