Plus they have to deal with the cold and the snow for half the year. That
would be depressing. Ask gene what the weather is like here right now. I
have my doors and windows open to cool (no breeze). I jus checked the temp
on the computer, says 69 degrees. The people in Finland are attrctive, but I
wouldn't want to live in icy weather ....bobford
