I'm not even sure sure it really simmered down much at all. I think
that Reagan, Clinton and Bushes found it useful to sell the story that
the former Soviets were really opening up and redirect attention
elsewhere.


It did simmer down for quite a while. The Russians were broke. Now,
they've a
lot of money coming in from sales of oil, so Putin got the bombers out of
mothballs.

I remember having a few buzz us a couple times one afternoon. Quite
interesting.
