Oh no, Danes hold Swedes in the highest regard. They have an admirable society, the People's Home, in many ways a model for Denmark. However, they run it in a horribly bureaucratic and rules-obsessed way, and are generally the haughtiest creatures on two legs, when they have them, as they all drink themselves legless at the drop of a bottle cap and have to be escorted to the nearest ferry. And the Danes are an outgoing people, totally free of prejudice. Lars Mathiesen (U of Copenhagen CS Dep) <thorinn@...> (Humour NOT marked)
