We all knew this ages ago.

"Swedes drink for a party, because they need a reason," declared Tony Olsson, a Swede who works in a liquor store downtown (in Elsinore), "while Danes drink all the time, ..."

All this and more from todays NYT. This explains a lot of "behavior" from our Tundra Mammoth(tm) denying friends.

Hmm. Let's expand that quote a bit:
"Swedes drink for a party, because they need a reason," declared Tony Olsson, a Swede who works in a liquor store downtown, "while Danes drink all the time, but not so much at once."


Still, anything said by a Swede in Elsinore must be taken with a grain of salt, as he probably wasn't in possession of his full faculties at the time. :D
