Fascinating and absorbing - sites that throw light in forgotten corners are sites that makes the net worthwhile. Thanks for another great post, plep.

Wonderful, plep...in my mind, one of the most fascinating things about the web is the way that it preserves the oral tradition of first person historical accounts in such a compelling way. These stories are fascinating.

You find the best links plep!

This is really, really engrossing! Thanks, plep!

If you're anywhere near Estonia, Tallinn is one of the most amazing cities that I've ever vistied-- beautiful, ancient, walled city surrounded by a Soviet poured-concrete nightmare. Be prepared to have some language troubles if you don't speak Estonian or Russian. If that's the case, make sure you bring a Finn.
