Speaking of SouthStream ... does anyone have any commentary on this?   Is this some discreet affirmation that Ukraine has always been the problem & not Russia?  Or is Europe just such a junkie they can't afford to be picky?  To the casual outsider, it seems curious that when Europe is not flipping out about being dependent on Russia for gas, they are busy signing agreements for new ways to get gas from Russia.  Just sayin'.

Where did everyone get their gas from before these pipelines?
