For en måneds tid siden deltog jeg i Geoforums Virtuelle Nytårskur. Her gentog jeg mit oplæg fra Kortdage 2025 om arbejdet på at få registreret i OpenStreetMap, hvad vejnavne er opkaldt efter, og nu har jeg fået smidt optagelsen online.

Maybe Denmark could sell Iceland to the US?

Not sure Orange Toddler would notice the difference?

We would find out when he next demands the world to give him a new toy.

"Captain, how soon can you land?"
"I can't tell."
"You can tell me. I'm a doctor."
"No. I mean I'm just not sure."
"Well, can't you take a guess?"
"Well, not for another two hours."
"You can't take a guess for another two hours?"
