    Well, not that overlooked in Sweden. But really, The Winter War. The Soviet forces had three times as many soldiers as the Finns, 30 times as many aircraft, and a hundred times as many tanks. Still, they only got 11% of Finland when they were trying to conquer the entire country. That is impressive.

    I also today learned that Sweden in the late 1950s had the fourth largest air force in the world.


    The Winter War also produced one of the greatest snipers of all time.

    Its worth noting that he got all his kills using standard iron sights since he felt a scope would fog over in the cold.


  4. Yeah tried there but alas; no luck.

    No worries - thanks anyway

    I'm looking for the black and white images of Bono posing during a photo shoot at (what I'm guessing was during Popmart). There;s about 9 different poses, some right up to the camera.

    Any help would be much appreciated.

    Any of these ring a bell?

  6. Anyone here?
  7. Currently applying for university... eeek!
  8. Scary

    Shit, it's time for me to apply to gymnasiet next month.
  9. You have to apply for that? Why? Isn't it effectively like high school?

    Shit, this website is a minefield. Can't find anything.
  10. Yeah, it's like high school, but we get to choose a school, and then the more points you have, the better chance you have to get a spot.
  11. Haha, oh my god, it's unbelievably easy to get into high school here. You are just forced to go, whether you are smart or unintelligent.
  12. Well, everyone does here as well. But everyone doesn't get in at the same places. For example, I may get into a place where 300 points end up being what's needed, while someone else only gets into a school with 103 points as requirement.

    So classes will become more homogenous since you also choose what to study.
