    The Russian composer Igor Morozov died on the same day. Wikipedia identifies him as a composer, poet … and KGB colonel. A macabre coincidence.

    Wikipedia also lists Gavrilets as Havrylets, which seems the proper Ukrainian spelling.

    No outrage? My mistake, it wasn’t a program that got replaced.
