I know that Alex regularly attends Wiki Meetups in Melbourne, for example t=
his:
http://wikiwednesday.org.au/wiki/Melbourne_March_2009

Perhaps I may be able to attend one in the future, cultivate a
friendship with him.

One thing we could perhaps exploit is the fact that Russavia claims to
be Australian not Russian. Maybe if we could subtlety suggest that his
antics are a gross parody of a Russian nationalist, a wannabe Russian
who is over doing it by being more Russian than a Russian. Will it
work?
