         Haven't seen a rules posting lately, but I'm still here....  ;

         A male friend of ours, who was born in one of the ex-USSR countries,
introduced us a few weeks ago to his new girlfriend... born in another of the
ex-USSR countries.  I hope this relationship lasts because she & I liked each
other from the start!  Anyway, she mentioned in conversation that the Russian
language has no dialects.  I don't disbelieve it.  But as a native speaker of
English I found myself quite surprised by the idea, and as the sort of person
who consults various sources I would also like to hear what *you* think.  :-)
