If we can get this project off the ground I will volunteer to courier it to
Europe on it's first journey.
I will be going back to Stockholm again at the end of August. Right now my
plan is to leave North Carolina on August 21st connecting in London on
August 22nd and then into Stockholm later in the day. I will be connecting
via Gatwick this time so if there is a box that we want to try and get to
Europe, I can take it to either London (if someone will come pick it up at
the airport) or to Stockholm where someone could get it from where ever I am
staying (which I don't happen to know off the top of my head but likely will
be either down town or out in Kista).
I think we will need a European volunteer to coordinate the effort in Europe
sort of like what Larry P. is doing in the US. After August I don't have
any more trips planned but there is a very small chance that I will go back
in October.
