The wikipedia random button is impressive.... i hit it and koschei (a mythological figure that i was vaguely aware of) came up... this was found through a link in the article:
A Colder War is an alternate history novelette by Charles Stross. It follows a "What If" scenario where the follow-up expedition in Lovecraft's "At the Mountains of Madness" has occurred, and inexorably fuses the Cold War and Cthulhu Mythos.
The story appears in "Spectrum SF #3" (Summer 2000), Gardner Dozois's "The Year's Best Science Fiction #18" (2001), "Toast: And Other Rusted Futures" (February 2002), and "Toast" (January 2004). The text can be read online in its entirety here

Haven't read it yet, but i thought i would post it before the possibility of me being engrossed in the story and forgetting about it could take place...
