Pullerits: Millised on kuuma teema uued arengud?

Yesterday I made a quick detour to Tallinn. Just business, nothing personal. Having spent only a couple of dozens of minutes at the editorial offices, I still found time there to talk briefly to a very knowledgeable source who is extremely well connected concerning the question which has caused excitement among all the sportslovers in our country, especially among the readers of this blog.

To tell you sincerely, I had already begun to lose some faith in the honesty and openness of the system which is officially dedicated to catching those who have used unlawful methods in order to gain advantage while competing with other mortals. Also, as you know, some readers had started to ask in the commentary section of the blog why no other journalist was discussing the topic which had been like a hot potato on those pages for several weeks. Some others, having become frustrated because of no clear signs of advancement in uncovering the burning issue, were becoming very agitated and restless and demanded immediate results, at the same time clearly anticipating that those results would never come.

So, I decided to channel all those questions and frustrations about the much-discussed topic to the most knowledgeable source among Estonian common people. (Don't expect me to be a fool and tell you who that source is.) The face of the source - as you see, I won't even give up the source's sex - lighted up, because the source had just received new information. And the information, to tell you honestly, was very concrete: who is going to do what and when?

I was amazed to learn from the source that some of the best and brightest people in Estonia in a certain field were engaged to solve the situation, although I would humbly suggest that the choice of Ants Nõmper would have been a better one because he is known in his specialty as the best man concerning the protection of private information. As you might understand there are some procedures which should be followed through in the upcoming days, but I was told by the source that there won't be too much time left to wait for the definite answer.

But let me remind you that I'm not the one who is pursuing that story, and I won't dare to steal the story from the person who has pursued it really hard and relentlessly. So, all I can tell you is that stay tuned and wait. Hopefully it will be all out and over in a couple of days.

Why did I write in English this time? You'll learn it in a couple of days. Meanwhile, you could give your uninformed guess.
