>LOL. You'd have to wonder what the heck that was about- maybe there was a plan to rescue Iceland's banks with the cash left by a certain Mr Objuwle who died in a plane crash with no heirs and if you will pay the release fee, you can have half of it?

This was actually in 2008, the year before Iceland's crash. Incidentally, Iceland was an amazing place to visit, geologically at least the most different from anywhere else I'd been. The variety of things you can see on such a small island is amazing, and we even experienced an earthquake there.
