I just got this idea.
Make 4 different guestions of your country. And people can try to aswer them.
And dont use books or internet for answering;)
SUOMI-FINLAND:
1. Who is our president?
2. What is our largest lake?
3. Which plant is our national flower?
4. Which is our highest fjeld?
European quiz.
hi Mitjo good idea but my Geography is bad.
like you Mark I wouldnt have a clue and I have a geography degree!! All I could tell you about Finland is that the capital city is Helsinki!
sorry Mitjo - good idea but would need extra help :))
So perhaps it would be better to share facts about our countries instead of asking questions?
Such as the highest mountain in the UK is Ben Nevis in Scotland http://images.google.com/images?sourceid=navclient&q=Ben+Nevis
Then we can learn without feeling ignorant LOL
;)
Hehehhe.

OK :P
I've just posted something about growshops...does that count as a topical fact ...here you can buy all stuff you need to grow cannabis. Growing cannabis commercial is illegal overhere. Here's a link for a (online) shop http://www.growshop.nl/ This one is in Maastricht http://organicearth.nl/taal.htm , the capitaltown of the province Limburg where I live. I have'nt visited this one...this one looks good (on the site)...the one I've visited was a rather dark shop on a industrial space. It's the only place where I can buy good pottingmixes for sowing my flowerseeds as a hobby gardner.
I hope that I may post this from Dave.

roll roll roll the joint, twist it at the end, stike it up, take a puff, pass it to a friend
:O !!! I sincerly hope that you never pass it to me :(
is that a Stone(d) fly?
I, dunno.
I agree Mitjo. Please show a bit of respect for mitjos age and his and others sensibilities folks :(!! it is not a subject you should take so flipently.
Mitjo, it is because you talked about things to do with your country. Saya then talked about the obvious thing that comes to mind when you think of Holland. Well, after the bulb fields.
Yes Mark, that's correct. After bulbs Netherlands is famous for their softdrugspolicy. I'm sure against smoking and certainly against smoking,eating... this stuff..its not harmless at all, research showed out that people who use "soft" drugs have 3 to 4 times more chance to develope a psychiatric disorder even when there is no familyhistory for this for instance. I just wanted to illustrate the double Dutch mentallity. You can buy and smoke a joint freely overhere in socalled "coffeeshops". Well they don't sell coffee there... We have "growshops" that certainly do not only provide for small homegrowings but off course the commercial growing. Commercial growing is still illegal overhere and police is very keen to catch them who do this. I've recently visited such a shop to get perlite and good growingsupplies. They are the only place for hobbygardners like me (just for the wonderfull seeds you've all send me!)where I can buy this. This was an adventure for me...but I'll never do this again. There are so many criminal things going on in this business. I don't want to do with it at all...in spite of the good growingsupplies.
Oh, sorry, my mistake. I forgot that Saya lives in Netherlands.. I have seen couple videos, and I kinda know what kind of it is in there...Hehehehh.
