    I have to check that out somehow, but I think 
    'Helsinki Media Company Oy' is mainly owned by Finnish people,
    Egmont may have big bunch of its stocks tough.

    In Aku Ankka there is sometimes (not in every issue) a 
    sort of letter-column called 'Toimituksen oma nurkka'.
    After the Wendigo-story they 'announced' that they
    have never received so much fan-mail for any story.   

    They also published a fan-letter right after your 'first'
    story (not Son Of the Sun) in Finland was published. The
    writer asked who the incredible artist-with-odd-style was
    and they answered it was 'young American called Don Rosa.'
      
    In last week's issue there is discussion about your Family-Tree.
    People are complaining like 'Since I was three I have known
    Granny Duck is $crooges sister...' (for some reason $crooges last 
    name in Finland is Duck not McDuck). They also talked about
    Dumbella-Della 'incident'.
