Of course, I agree. As the Gypsy said:"Ah, there's so many ways to skin the cat..." I am just playing around with the idea of attaching some booster rockets to the ship...

Years ago I had some business in Outokumpu - like in "Town of" Outokumpu.

outokummunkaupunki.fi
or

outokummunkaupunki.fi

The mine was long closed by then, so I had the whole place for myself (g) - they have a giant stonehenge of rocks planted next to the parking lot and they were just a beauty. I still have some very bad photos of them, some of them looking like tiger skin, some showing off their olivin coloured background, laced with quarz veins...

Well, what I wanted to tell ... I was at the customer's place (geologists what else) and he let me borrow the book for the evening. The name of the book was rather short: AU. Everything was in there, California, Klondike, SA...

It was a long evening, but I felt again as a little kid, with a battery lamp and covered over the head (so ma does not find out), reading a Jack London book.

This posting sounds like Abracadabra to me

QUOTE
Finland, Russia has the same railroad width as both North and South Korea, different from the
the rest of Europe. (Finland and Korea are next to door neighbors, in many ways)
However, due to the "sunshine politics" of both Koreas to be unified, as well as
Japan, China,etc, the missing rails are just about to be built through the mine fields
between the Koreas, were officially blown up some months ago.(the mines, to make
place for the railroad)

Finland railroaders have already been preparing for the both Koreans trade for some years as
we have some good equipment to switch the goods over to european railrad widths, changing
the axis of the wagons.
(however, Estonia is competing well, but there is still the question of finnish toilet-paper
rolls shipped to the south)

In no way do I claim that the north-south Korean thing of their mutual "sunshine politics" are
the reason for the evil railroad axis.
