Stefan is a Moonshiner.
Was*. In the times such an activity could be met with severe repercussions from the system. For me, it was all a beautiful scientific experiment that let me understand the rectifier distillation process perfectly! Now, a true fact for you (even if it sounds like an invented anecdote!)

I did the first rectifications at night of 9/10th February 1984. As I was almost finished, I listened to the kitchen radio. Solemn music was played and the speaker said the dear Soviet leader Yuri Andropov had just died. Oh, well. The next time I decided to repeat the experiment on the night of 10/11th March 1985. As I was done with the work and listened to the radio, the solemn music blared... It was Chernenko that time! :D
The truth is I was fed up with those experiments, so I washed the equipment up and hid it in the cellar. I wouldn't put my parents at the risk of the repression anymore, either. What I did indeed invent was the story I had never continued the moonshining as I wanted to keep Gorbachev alive :D :D :D
