Glad you're OK, lph. My heart hurts for your country. Several of my ancestors emigrated from Norway and I likely have relatives in the Trondhjem area. When I think of Norway I think of such a peaceful place. But extremists are everywhere. I'm so sorry for the mourning that so many are enduring because of this man's senseless actions.

Duck is ok, she's in Trondheim far away from the incident. I'll let her know you asked.

I'm trying to distance myself a little from it all, waiting for the names to be announced. Incapable of making much sense anyway. The Guardian had a couple of good articles in English here:
http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2011...osion-massacre
http://www.guardian.co.uk/commentisf...shootings-oslo
They pretty much describe "my" Norway. Nothing like this has happened since WW II. I feel like the Eloi in Wells' Time Machine. Grateful for one thing - physically he was a blond, goodlooking, average Norwegian, nothing that could identify him as an "outsider" and trigger some awful backlash.Winter riding is much less about badassery and much more about bundle-uppery. - malkin
