What brands do the 'pros' use? Are Nokia's better than Motorla. Which ones are more aerodynamic? Are flip phones more likely to open prematurely? Is it ok if they drop a call while in flight? Or are you penalized?

Can I substitue one of my notebook computers instead?

Thanks

Should I say it this way.. Different Nationalities Participate and who can withstand the highest temps in a sauna and the last one to stay in that temp is the winner.. :lol: :lol:

Hey Heikki,

Didn't they have an event recently in Denmark, Norway or Finland where the person that could stay in a sauna the longest won. I understood they had one contest for men, one for women and one for couples. :lol:
It didn't say whether they were clothed or naked, but with that hot of atmosphere, I'm sure it would be irrelevent. Inquiring minds want to know. :D

Yes thats very true it was not so long ago either.. I cant remember though who it was that won it..

They had swimming outfits on for sure because they had thousands of spectators cheering the participants on .. right outside the door.. :lol: :lol: and
it was televised.
