RE: Romanovs
Tourist trips to Russia are quite popular (not with me) and include Yekaterinburg. Of course tour guides have to mention the unfortunate Romanovs ( its not as if they can pretend it didnt happen).

Now I'm only giving a 2nd hand account here so bear with me. Friends of mine (who dont know much about the history) went on the tour. (from what I gather) They were told by the guide a most peculiar sanitised version of the killings. It was if the communists that did the shooting really didnt want to kill the Romanovs ... it was really most unfortunate and involved the reluctant soldiers being selected to be in the killing group by drawing straws, and the Romanovs were painlessly shot in the back of the head.
