I have decided that 95% of the pages written in Russian were only written in
Russian because it made it easier for me to practice Russian and also read
things that interest me.  ^_^  Seriously, there are all kinds of really
excellent websites only available in Russian, and it amuses me to no end.
It seems very random, and I run into them far more often than I run into
pages written in French, Spanish, or Chinese (which you'd think I'd find all
the time).  The oddest thing is researching the Spanish Civil War.  All the
sites I can find are either in both English AND Spanish, or JUST in Russian.
The good news is that AltaVista's Babelfish does a passable Russian
translation...

The title of this page seems to be in Russian, German, French?, and
something else.  What are the two languages that clearly aren't German or
Russian?
