My conversation with this colleague from a distant place caused me to reflect on the differences in perceptions and development in our two cultures and also invoked connections between our cities, our work, our concerns. I believe that Dr. Bykov would strongly disagree with those words. Bykov's interest in the past is very much concerned with the future, the future of his endeavors at his history center and of the city of Vologda building on its past. In remembering and retelling an important part of Vologda's history, Bykov brings a new perspective to our own past, a new connection with our present, even an inspiration for our future.
