Curt:

MARCH 1ST :REQUEST FOR VOLUNTEERS TO CLEAN UP MAIDAN

Well, I was too much of a coward to go fight, (and I didn’t feel I had the right to), but I think I’ll go help clean up a bit. At least I’ll feel like I did something to honor the dead and the people who did the fighting, even if it’s really small – even insignificant. I don’t know any other way to show respect for those that did the real work.

Curt is being modest. His intellectual contribution is enormous. If it isn’t affecting Ukrainians already, it will be soon.

Me? I did the “work” of spending one night on maidan a couple weeks ago, walking from the kitchen to all the barricades with hot tea. It was cold, but not cold enough for glory. :)
