Frøya Enthusiast Registered: Fri Jan 13 2006 Posts: 337 Loc: Norway	hello everyone My name is Gyrid and I'm from northern Norway. After playing quizzes on funtriva.com for some months I decided to join the forum. I love reading(mostly fantasy/sci-fi and comics), singing, tramping, space, taekwondo/aikido and of course doing quizzes.

satguru Forum Champion Registered: Thu Feb 17 2000 Posts: 8091 Loc: Kingsbury London UK	Hello Gyrid, I think you're our first member with a new letter in their screen name, and I wrote a thread about them myself (though not including yours). I am now a lot more familiar with a character map, though I expect Scandinavian keyboards will have all the letters directly. I've got as far as Denmark and Sweden long ago, which were very nice, but not made it to Norway. Welcome to Funtrivia!

satguru Forum Champion Registered: Thu Feb 17 2000 Posts: 8091 Loc: Kingsbury London UK	Glad you made those points froya (sorry I can't use the proper o...) as you reminded me of an update to the extra letters thread, which I just added here. There's another one nearby where I wrote the whole thread using them, if I can find it. _________________________ Does the brain create or receive consciousness?
