Yes, blind hen, not even three days ago. More seriously, thanks, the interview pretty well captures the basic "nokia" and finnish ideas going back to maybe at least the early 18th century. To put it in more contemporary 60 minutes documentary (only 3 years old??) concepts, "it takes two to tango" and some mutual understanding is needed to not step on each other's toes all the time while trying to build a new generation. However, the more US expression of "sharecropper mentality" is more deadlier. Ilmarinen. P.S. Argentinian tango is another odd global connection for Finland as well as Japanese, formal and demanding skills, concentration and no hype, stumbling is not recommended at crucial moments and not even humor helps at that disastrous stage, although it helps later on.

Interesting Q-thread responses on Folke Ahlback! Some confusion when trying to add up these traditional finnish concepts with more contemporary views of the Q-thread, but net sum very encouraging. Maybe sharecropping is really something now really becoming some weird thing of the history books of the older, forgotten generations?? But the dream of a free lunch, global supremacy and tax collection is still strong, almost unresistable.. Ilmarinen. But it takes two to do the tango, and more to build global, mutually agreed upon standards and even more to implement them.
