Nashville , you talked to Gerrit Dijkstra, a friend ....he`s on the L list too, he had his car burn when his rental garage caught fire, no insurance , because it was a "project" they would not insure it......we , several people on the "list", chipped in and got him a good starting capital for a new project....he`s a great guy....I`ve been shipping parts to him sometimes ( avoiding customs = 25%...)
I once lived 'over there' too....came here to Texas in 68....
And Bob , yes, Swedes do understand German , we (at least used to) take English ,German and French in school...
