TodayJP wrote in to proudly unsmirch the Finnish reputation."Some time ago, you blamed the Finns for strange patterns on Valts's weather map.I am delighted to report that the *real* culprit isrevealed when carefully examining the Finnish MeteorologicalInstitute's weather map of the whole of Europe."

Clive P. is hot and botheredabout his thermostat."Not a web problem for once, but I'm worried about the in-homedisplay unit connected to my new smart meter. Firstlyit's mains-powered so why bother to show a message sayingsupply disconnected - if you can see it on the screen then the electricity must be connected. And second my gas consumption appears to be over 500 megawatts at present. It's different every day: sometimes above a gigawatt. A sanity check in the firmware would have been a nice touch - or even better not to use an uninitialized variable. Our supplier is Electricite de France (EDF) by the way, so perhaps something got lost in translation."
