To:   V. M. KASPAROV

Dear Comrade, You have written the wrong thing to Shklovsky. What was needed was how to find the person, and not a biography. And you did
not give Shklovsky your address. In executing an important assignment you
should be more careful, otherwise you will be a 100 times to blame for failure to find an important
person to assist the cause.

Please rectify the mistake at once . [1]

Yours, Lenin
