The Soviet mini-series that adapted Jules Verne's "The Children of Captain Grant" [1] is really nice, it's from the mid-'80s, a time that supposedly was bleak because of Chernobyl and the post-Andropov and post-Chernenko years, but nevertheless to kid me the TV series seemed full of optimism and of endless opportunities and marvels. That's from where I got the nickname I use on this website, too.

No problem :) Nope, it's after the name of a Jules Verne character from this novel: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/In_Search_of_the_Castaways. The 1980s Soviet TV series which based on the book left a strong impression on me when I was a kid, so that was that (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0088635/reference)
