What a load of crap...

"If I am flying to another country through Moscow do I need a transit visa?
Yes, you do. You should apply for a transit visa to the Russian Consulate showing them your air tickets to and from Moscow. They will issue your transit visa on the grounds of your tickets. Please note that a transit visa can be valid for up to 72 hours."

From http://www.russianvisa.org/faq.html#11

I found an itinerary with under 12 hours on the ground, but still to need a visa...?!
