Just for the record guys, emphasis marks aren't used even in kids' books. The only books you can see them in are Russian textbooks for foreigners.

Alright. I can see, in tongue-in-cheek fashion, how Gagarin qualifies for this list -- but Kalashnikov? His products have made a splash outside of Russia, no doubt, but not him. For that matter, should Eisenstein or Tarkovsky be included here, too?

The definition itself is a bit vague - after Yaponchik and Gagarin I saw the borders getting blurred. Okay, I see what you mean.

You forget that Yaponchik did serve nine years for extortion in the US. That is, after all, an accomplishment -- of sorts.
