    KK и MM - наши друзья. По идее они должны помогать мне всеми доступными средствами (Зиновьев 1). "К.К. and M. M. are our friends. In theory they ought to go to any lengths to help me" (1a).

Who would ever have believed that one of our leading Soviet Marxist theorists (which is to say in principle a boor, a dogmatist, an obscurantist and an oaf) could think in this way! (2a).
    По идее подземное движение устроено так, что машины набирают всё большую скорость и выносятся на горбы магистралей, держа стрелки уже на второй половине спидометров (Аксёнов 7). The idea was to enable the underground traffic to pick up enough speed so that by the time a car reached the entrance ramp of its choice, its needle had moved over to the second half of the speedometer (7a).
