Do we have any here from the Pittsburgh area?

[DonP]

Hey Guys. I am one of those occasional posters who has been happily married to a RW for 2.5 years now and have a question for those of you out there.

I am considering a job in Pittsburgh, Pa. and wanted to see if anyone out here is from that area. If so, I'd like to talk and get some background info on the area as well as any Russian communities in that area. My wife mostly and daughter a little are concerned about leaving the nice comfortable and safe confines of Richmond, Va. and the wonderful Russian friends they have made here.

Any help would be appreciated. Let me know and then we can share email addresses and maybe phone #'s enlighten me.

Thanks in advance.

he worked their as long as i knew him back in the 90's anyway. He setup firework shows, i was good friends with his son. He died of a heart attack at 40 while setting up one of Z.'s shows. I believe they were in Louisiana at the time of his passing, pretty sad I must say.
So, did I ring any bells?
