I wasn't there in 1997.... I wonder if I even ever surved the internet in
that year...

Niels:
You're right.... I think the hardest thing to do is find a topic everyone is
interested in and wich is not already talked about. But I think that if you
make up a topic from the news or something wich is quite new you will cover
up both problems at the same time. But what has happened lately where you
could talk about? I hope we find something!
See ya.
Niels.
