• +Jess: http://www.nytimes.com/2008/04/29/world/europe/29austria.html?_r=1&hp&oref=slogin
• it's just...well. creepy as hell.
• Elsa: god
• so awful
• (why do these things seem to happen so often in austria?!)
• +Jess: I know!
• (haha, umm...the guy on the BBC this morning asked the same question...or, he was like "is there something about austria that makes these things common there?" the answer was, "uh, no.")
• Elsa: whatever! it has become a country that i automatically think of as weird
• +Jess: it's true!
• although, I don't know if I've ever given Austria much thought one way or another...
• Elsa: well, EXACLTY
• the only times i ever think of austria
• are with these cases
• +Jess: besides this and the one mentioned in the article, what is there? (all I can think of now is "Hitler")
• Elsa: (haha. ditto.)
• i am conducting a scientific poll
• no one has come up with much new
• but most people support the "weird" theory
• and someone says "something about this makes me think - only in a landlocked country"
