Ouch- LarsA, Sweden in national mourning, Astrid Lindgren has died.
The connection is obviously the meaning of the "content", as well as kids in general, plus a little extra on (one of those) Jan Johanssons, who took a Ghanian directly modulated brassband march to compose maybe the most known and popular melody of most of scandinavia, should be the national hymn of Sweden these days?? (the century of dealing with the left-overs of colonialization)
Jan Johansson additionally started out studying electronics, also the first european (jazz) musician to get a honour membership in USA.
But one morning the road was icy and his Saab ended against a tree..
Anyway, next year, this time, I'm sure a lot of MMS and MP3 message will be sent, carrying the messages of both.
Btw, SMS messages to Ghana still ping-pong faster than those to Seattle!!

PS. the finnish, more real-politik variation, maybe, was the one presented in GPRS Naantali and the synch channel. (has to do with local safety and living with dark dangers behind the hill, while the Astrid stuff is mostly about the joy of diversity all over the hill, both in their clearly feminist ways, Astrid probably went deeper into death in some aspects??)
Dxmnd, the swedes seem to be tight on pirate MP3 J Johansson versions on the net??
One quick link:

Lousy, finnish, non-ghanian ring-tone version sms.saunalahti.fi
OK, found one, Johansson-ghanian almost original.
geocities.com (please visualize a ghanian, almost post-colony brassband and a lot of kids, one little feminist, in sweden)
