Those were the times…when people started changing everything…absolutely everything. Starting over from scratch. Some left, changing homelands. Some changed their convictions and principles. Others changed their possessions, buying all new stuff for their homes. Throwing out everything old and Soviet, and replacing it with everything new and imported…The shuttle traders had already brought it all over: electric kettles, telephones, furniture…refrigerators…Mountains of goods materialized out of God knows where.
