Yes, almost (don't forget the people who went to school before Swedish
became a mandatory for everyone) I meant to say "Swedish-like language
speakers who don't speak Finnish". I should be more careful in what I say.

Harry:
>(Or maybe they are "officially" non-existant?)

No, we prefer not doing that kind of things in Finland (although Sami and
some other smaller groups have had some problems). For historical reasons
language rights of Finnish-Swedish population have always been very well
protected.

Petri:
>It is called Die göttliche Entenkömedie (The Divine 
>Duckcomedy) and it contains the famous Italian story L'inferno di Topolino 
>(I TL    7-A).

You mentioned that when it was in stores, but I forgot to get it! I think I
go to hit my head to the wall.
