Okay, that surprised me. I thought fireplaces would've been a given in Norway. Or do you live in an apartment building?
Yeah, like a lot of people in the city I live in a block of flats, and we only have electrical heating.

Trains are good. I like trains, planes and boats, and some cars. I like airships too in theory, although I've never been in one. I wonder if airships would have been big business still if it hadn't been for the Hindenburg accident. I used to go to the harbor occasionally to look at the boats and ships, but after 911 they put up high fences there to keep the public out.

Once on day of the airport, I went there and got to take a tour of the tower. I like most means of transportation. When I was little we used to live near a water where there was a small rowboat, in so bad shape it only barely floated. I liked watching it from my veranda and dreamed of going out on it. A railroad went right past between the water and our building and I liked that too.
