Hmm. IMO I don't agree with this. I would love to see references to old
inventions, invented by Barks, the once-was real life Gyro Gearloose. I
write this as a reference to Barks himself thinking Gyro was the best
picture of himself in the Duckburg Universe apart from a certain sportsman
looking like him, and certain wanted-posters.

Would it be an insult to laugh at this? It's quite too easy to
unsubscribe, just read the top of the mail.

Thanks for reminding me of the english dialogue. I don't think the danish
editor took the time to find this reference. 
Maybe he didn't know about it, and if so, I already know why.

Interesting
also the Snafu. You have a point wondering why this went through, even the
danish censoring when words like shut up resulted in stories not being
made, and that letter from barks. telling that the next time that mother
was reading a story to her son, he would see to it that it was so boring
her little sneezing son would fall asleep on page 2!

No, he didn't think it, he simply knew that one dansih pound is half a kg.
My grandma used the term all the time. She wouldn't eg. buy a certain
amount og kg's of  strawberries, she bought poiunds of strawberries, they
are still mostly sold by the ½-kilo in Denmark, but theyb use that term
now, even though it's silly. I would like a ½-kg of strawberries. 
I wasn't aware one english pound 8of weight) wasn't exactly ½ a kg...

(93 kg or lower at the moment I hope)

I thought i saw someone writing to Kriton about Barks having 2 or 3
mariages, I think it was 3, but he only had children from the first one,
as fas I know. He at least had a daughter in the frist mariage, who passed
away too early.
