Yeah, I saw, they wanted a straight answer

Truth to tell, I have no idea. I guess, some things just happen. Like some artists die poor and after death they win recognition. Why? It's more of a philosophical question. It just happened this way. ReHIPS hasn't been widely advertised yet, so it just happened that 2 forums it's mostly discussed at besides this one are in english. But I suppose there are enough russian-speaking on these forums too.
