Different question about heater bars

[Farrell]

Hi again Richard. Well, now I'm wondering. What series of events brought you
to Norway. I guess I just always figured that anyone living elsewhere was
born there - not to say I can't understand anyone moving to another
country - but rather it takes some ba%&s to make a big move like that - or
did you immigrate to Norway from Sweden.
