I want to see the Airborn Anti-Christ! That is just super cray-cray! ;)

My main Finnish reference is the National Hockey League, even though I have a couple of Värttinä albums, thanks to Ranjit!

I am pretty sure I did the SrI Lanka/Finland thing ages ago when I came back from Sri Lanka, and I know I got 100%, but now that it's been over 20 years, and I don't remember anything! Here I go again!

Also, I'm pleased that Elliott's main reference for Finnish is the
band Värttinä.  Säme here.
