Thanks for the explanation Art. We do get a fair amount of the hockey news from Canada and the US only because of the Finnish players. Hope your team does well!!

See, now, it isn't really too early for Christmas. Pikkujoulu (Little Christmas) is already starting in a lot of places over the next week. We see a lot of lights up and in the windows already locally. Here's a neat link to the lights in Helsinki. It's not that elaborate here, but it has already begun. We won't do our Christmas lights on the house until next year. In the US, yes it is early but our days are already dark and cold. The lights do help lift the spirits.
