Where else would Stockholm be but Sweden?
To our dear American cousins it could be a small town in the mid west, for example, Cairo (Illinois), Rome (Illinois) and Paris (Illinois). Hence their tendency to qualify with country, for example, Cairo (Egypt), Paris (France) and Rome (Italy). I'm somewhat disappointed to see the RIPE NCC adopting the habit though. -- Nigel Titley Peering Coordinator, FLAG Telecom +44 20 8564 5812 ********************************************************************** This e-mail message is confidential and is intended only for the use of the individual or entity named above and contains information which is or may be confidential, non-public or legally privileged.

I'm seeing the list bulleted with euro-signs, and wondering what the significance of this is. Is there some Stockholm in the Euro-zone, that I didn't know about? 8-) On 8 Mar 2005, at 17:16, Edward Lewis wrote:

(Indeed. There is actually a (very small) place called Stockholm in New Jersey (which, BTW, is in the USA :-), but it's far from an obvious choice for a RIPE meeting ... :-) Cheers, /Liman #---------------------------------------------------------------------- # Lars-Johan Liman, M.Sc. !
