I thought his job was to stay at his desk and pound out new bugs. :-)

I'm back now, and had a wonderful time. Sweden is a great place, and the 
Oredev folks, in particular Michael Tiberg (the conference organizer), 
treated me very well. All the Swedes I encountered were very friendly 
and helpful whenever I had an ignorant touristy question (and these were 
just regular folks out on the street!).

In contrast, I've been to other countries where they clearly disliked 
americans on sight, their only interest was in shaking you down for as 
much money as possible, and sniggering about you when you turn your back.

I've been in many european countries, and it has never happened there.

There were no umlauts there :D If anything, it shows your lack of a unicode
enabled newsreader ;)
