Hoi Dick of Space!

Eh... OK. I forgot I was listening to the Spacestation. That "musta reikä" that they sang about was of course one of those dark materia black holes in the sky that try to suck in the Spaceshuttle all the time...
Good old finnish folklore...eh. :P

And BoB, really good reception this time. I don´t know if it was the frequency, radioconditiones or something else. Promising for the future in any case! :D
