There's also an entire book called The Cold War that I should've read.  It's pretty fat, so I'm not going to be able to finish that one by Monday, so I'll just have to hope it doesn't feature too heavily in the test.

Yay you! You seem to be making progress.

Yeah, I admit I kinda skimmed on a couple. If you asked me what the memos were about, I'd be like "Uhh... JFK and Kruschev talked. About something. Yeah."

And I have somehow been distracted by a hunt for intro russian textbooks. Not sure what that was about.
