Isn't Denmark a bit too crowded for wolves?

Hmm, I just had an idea - relocate all Danes to Sweden, Norway and Germany, then make Denmark the national park of Europe. There's only like 5 million Danes - I've lived in cities with more people than that.

Problem is there isn't a stick of 'nature' left in Denmark.  It's a big, flat, paved over big of land.

I just had the strangest dream.  About a Japanese business man buying the BBC and Sky News and trying to combine them.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Okay Martinus
If you let someone handcuff you, and put a rope around your neck, don't act all surprised if they hang you!

- Eyal Yanilov.

Forget about winning and losing; forget about pride and pain. Let your opponent graze your skin and you smash into his flesh; let him smash into your flesh and you fracture his bones; let him fracture your bones and you take his life. Do not be concerned with escaping safely - lay your life before him.

I stand by my statement.

By that measure, Schleswig-Holstein is a suburban sprawl.

Well, copmpared to Yukon it is. :P

I doubt there's many points anywhere in Central Europe where you can see for 4 or 5 miles and not see any sign of civilization (power lines, roads, a building ....).
I am, somehow, less interested in the weight and convolutions of Einstein's brain than in the near certainty that people of equal talent have lived and died in cotton fields and sweatshops.

In that case, we'll relocate everyone from a country that still has some nature left (Austria, perhaps) and move them to newly-vacated Denmark.

Malthus and HisMajestyBob, I'm looking at you.
It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.
