hehe, my icelandic pals tried to tell me that it was THEY who really had Ireland first...seems it was the other way around!

I have a dvd of sigur ros if you've not heard of them they're a progressive rock band that means violins and cellos and all sorts and playing guitar with a violin bow(you got to here it,although you probably have on t.v its used widely on shows etc.)
they're from iceland and did a tour of the country giving free open air concerts for the local communities
It was seen as a very noble thing to be done
but they mentioned because there is such a small population nearly everyone knows everyone else one way or another

Hi Antara. Interesting clip - added to my Culture, Customs and Etiquette clipcast.

This is a dangerous story to those who want to promote the unlimited "diversification" of the Western world through the massive Third World immigration/invasion. Iceland is something like 99.5% white for the time being. It being such an idyllic place -- peaceful, unified, low crime rate, etc. -- tends to contradict the liberal's claims that "diversification" strengthens and improves formerly ethnic European societies, rather than bringing divisiveness, crime, discrimination lawsuits, ruination of public school systems, etc.
