Oh you know, its that whole Swedish thing.  I suspect we all want something
different and Anders is from Sweeden and is merely a surrogate for that.  I
suspect someplace downstream there will be papers written on the topic of
"Anders vs. Swedish cultural history. Good or bad?"  The paradoxical part is
that there are going to be minds which will *think* about this.

would give up their identity freely (or lay it out on the table for one to
fiddle with it?)
