Fairbanks is still in the lead. Ole is right that Helsinki and Oslo farther north (by at least a half a degree) than where I think the Orkneys chapel is. Fairbanks is still in the lead.

The Orkneys are one of my favorite places on the planet -- St.Magnus Cathedral, Maes Howe, Scapa Flow, art museum in Stromness, great food, etc. Now I have another reason to plan a return visit. For those who want to know more, I found this information at http://users.ox.ac.uk/~wolf1200/chapelonline/HomePage/NewsMayJune06.html : <blockquote> <p align=\"left\">Farther afield, what about a complete break at Haughland House, the new Unitarian Retreat House at Shapinsay, Orkney? Full board for 1–4 nights costs £30 per night; full board for five nights costs £140; and full board for 7 nights costs £196. There is an on-going programme of meditation, music, story telling, circle dancing, yoga, reiki, and crafts, and special weekend events throughout the summer and autumn. Email lesleymckeown <em>at</em> hotmail.com for details.</p></blockquote> This is wonderful news!

I think in the end I am going to stick with OSX - I know the UI too well. How about you?
