According to Russian scientist Zhores Alferov (b. 1930), a 2000 Nobel prize winner for his studies in the physics of semi-conductor hetero-structures, 10% of the population has seized the national resources of Russia, and don`t care about preserving the Russian lead in science and hi-tech world competition. Alferov finds the state of Russian science catastrophic. Only unbridled optimists remain in the field with no new generation coming up to replace them. (0.205 kg.)
