Don't let him fool you. There's no such language as "Swedish." Swedes really speak English, but they're using Russian keyboards (a legacy of the Russian invasion of Sweden), so all the letters come out weird. So KJ managed to get his hands on a genuine IBM keyboard. That doesn't make him any kind of linguistic master. -Mike K., bork bork bork -- Michael Kozlowski mlk@cs.wisc.edu Recommended SF (Updated 1/22): http://www.cs.wisc.edu/~mlk/sfbooks.html
