Judges on the Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit are obviously a talented group of individuals.  Recently, Judge Randall Rader had an opportunity to show off some of his linguistic skills in a trademark appeal concerning Russian-made Vodka.  Apparently, Judge Rader is not only fluent in Russian but also Finnish. Judge Rader noted that he spoke Russian early in the proceedings [Listen] and later closed the oral argument with these remarks in Russian[Listen].
