Hackers seem to come it two shapes: grossly overweight, constantly snacking one and skinny kid looking like bag of bones. The second type could be brought up to speed in relatively short time (2-3 months of quite light exercise) - they might even like it. But the first kind ... just forget it.

Right. Better send some CIA agents to foil this fiendish plot. Not sure what plot it is, but if they torture Russians enough, they will surely confess to something.
