from Finland

ok, whatever I wrote (two weeks ago today as a matter of fact) from Montevideo applies just as equally here.

I just finished attending my annual IABS conference in Tampere (two hours north of here). More info about that available at www.iabs.net

Anyway my hotel here in Helsinki makes internet available free here, but there's a 15 minute limit, so I have enough time to say it's exciting to be here and I'll post again soon. I've already been thinking about a blog on Chile v. Argentina v. Finland. Interesting stuff.

I've also expanded my Finnish vocabulary to two words.. Moi and Kiitos. (hello and thank you respectively).

Back again soon.
