Vyeliki Sovyetski Siborgavae Zaschitnae Robot is a word-for-word translation.... more or less. There is no word for cyborg, and I don't think they'd use it in a name like that... it makes too cumbersome to pronounce or acronymize... I think they'd call it Vyeliki Sovyetski Zaschitnae Beomehanichiski Robot, which comes back as Great Soviet Defense Biomechanical Robot, which is close enough for govenment contractor work...


-Z, just itching for an NXE credit of some type... :)

Everybody calls me 'Z'... or at least, most of my friends do... :)

See, now, I feel overly silly giving credits to random online nicknames. (I still have a hard time with "MegaZone", and that's his name.) I always end up feeling like that cop in The Crow. ("'T-Bird'? Don't you know anybody with an actual grown-up name?")

Heh. Gryph did... ONCE. He's regretted it ever since, because it blossomed into a fad way out of proportion with the original cause, and can be summed up with just 3 letters... R, C, W.
