Equalizer, you ***** ! Even Switzerland has a ****ing Army, and they never go to war. In fact, it's pretty common knowledge that Scandinavian countries have mandatory military service.

Both my grandfathers took part in WW2, when the Finns fought the Russians and then later the Germans.

I'm really a Finn. At the time when I got my draft papers from Finland, I was in aviation college here in Sweden. The reason I changed nationality was because of college at the time. I could count my service in the airforce as part of the college program.

Well, now I'm actually both a Finn and Swede, but I cheer for Finland when hockey is on. I quess that's what really matters.

Gee MRT1212 the rest of us have come to the realization that tek has multiple personalities so resolving just two of them is no big deal for him

Pilot, cable TV?

I don't know about Finns in Finland, but here in Sweden they started pounding us with English in the 4th grade. Also, the percentage of people with Internet access is very high in both coutries. Everything combined, I quess.

Finnish is beautifully complex and it makes English seem like a sign language

strongly suggest that you avoid using headphones. I have found from my experience that a headphone surely kills your ears.


DUH, I should not be typing late at night.
