If ever there has been a more burning question then I will eat my floppy hat. Can you please tell us what the word 'Trot' means?

Dear Confused Greatly,

We decided that your letter was bone fide and not among the hundreds that we get from the YS seeking a bit of enlightenment every week. We suggest you read a bit of the Essential Stalin or go the whole bit and peruse the walls of the downstairs loos....next to the telephone numbers. All shall be revealed to you. By the way when you do find out there are a few people that would be much appreaciative of enlightenment. You know who we mean, but of course we can't be vindictive, can we?;
