Welcome to European Tribune. It's gone a bit quiet around here these days, but it's still going.

Admittedly I would need to call your wife to the stand to defend any action for slander against me, and that raises certain difficulties under British law.

But I would fight to have it under the jurisdiction of Finnish Law, which, in a society with a misdirected obsession with cleanliness, would probably allow my lawyer quite a lot of leeway.

But I have a Solomonistic solution - slander me freely and call it quits.

You can't be me, I'm taken

I call it quits. You slander me freely. Or maybe just take cheap shots.

Truce: I'm disconnected for the weekend, so keep your powder dry. We will return to the project of turning you into an all-round human being in the very near future ;-)

Who do you think you are, and who do you think I am exactly?

And here I thought you were just playing along too, Migeru... I think you are both brilliant, but obviously in different ways.
