"Zhenya, what cubic feet?" "We don't need anything at all" "We just have to flip these ones, the undamaged ones, over;" "We just have to flip these ones, the undamaged ones, over;" "and the ones that are rotted through - the logs, the beams- we can use the lumber from another section" "Yeah, just make one section out oftwo, that's it" "What did Sasha say?" "Just that - we'll make one section out oftwo" "Ok then, that'swhatwe'll do" "That's what we'll do" "Then we have to see which ones are undamaged and which ones are rotted through."

"They'll clear yourcredit and give you compensation too I don'twant my credit cleared!" "I don't need their compensation" "You tell me, may I stay on the land?" " Not on this land" "They have other plans for this land" "Do you know the people who buy it?" " Why do you care?" " You knowwhy I care" "Let's go see the buyers, you and I, let's talkto them" "Maybe I can pay them rent?" "It's mewho buysthis land" "What are you looking at?"
