LOL! Those message exchanges that people have had with the time traveller guy are really funny. Those people are making up all sorts of nonsense, claiming they have the special components, and so on, and the time traveller guy always responds so seriously. ... some people must have alot of free time.

I have received Messages like that, too, but I just deleted them. I'm guessing that they are in some other language like maybe Chinese, Japanese, Korean etc and you need the proper font installed in your computer to view it.

It is Russian To view letters correctly you should setup broweser to recognise Cyrillic encoding. Go to "view", "encoding" and select Cyrilic(win).

Basically it is an advertising from "Luzhniki" stadium in Moscow. Apparently they have a nice set of health and fittness clubs. If you ever be in Moscow and want sauna or gym, that's a place They also have a soccer school for boys and want you to join !
