Actually, it was a friend of mine who did that joint in my picture. I was helping him, so theoretically speaking I know how to make one - and I feel that if I had a lot of time, I could manage to make one all by myself. But now the situation at hand is that winter is already creeping in, and replacing logs upper in wall is rather timeconsuming procedure, so I had to take an alternative route - more like "quick and dirty but still it will do the trick" =)

This also happens often on UnReal World forums - people come up suggesting ideas what Sami and me have been talking about for years. But we feel it like "OK, we are going into the right direction - many of they players have similar ideas what we've been thinking of". And same here - it feels nice to see you suggesting something I was also considering myself. A nice kind of synchronization in thoughts and ideas =)

Oh, yes. Personally I think I'm never going to return to the academic world, but sometimes I think that it would be nice to find a good combination of living in the countryside and then doing smaller amounts of reading and writing - and at the moment I feel that this blog serves well for this purpose =)
