Smokin Joe:
Lost me when he said St Petersburg was formerly known as Leningrad.

IIRC, it was St. Petersburg from its founding in 1703, renamed to Petrograd in 1914 before Kaiser Wilhelm sent Lenin up to Russia to make trouble for the Tsar (who was murdered, along with his family not so long after), and renamed Leningrad in 1924.

It only got it's name back recently, but still. That's only 300 years or so to get straight, and we're talking 3000+ for the oldest parts of the Bible. Maybe I'll try again later...

Sighlass:
I found it interesting... Thanks @corbe
