#1 "I'm pleased and relieved the charges have been dropped, but we should not have been charged at all."

#2 Awww- I was hoping they would get to roleplay "A Day In The Life of Ivan Denisovich". It would have been such an educational experience, 25 years for Anti-~~Soviet~~ Russian Hooliganism!

There's always time to lose their paperwork.
