Re: Little Details from Your Day
1811Found someone to take care of my smog problem, you might recall it passed emissions (very very low) but it has the "wrong" catalytic converter. It passed! Phew!
My grandparents had a lot of guests from the Soviet Union during those years. My grandparents were leftist and apparently Soviet Union sympathizers. I also would like to know what kind of files SUPO (Finnish equivalent to FBI, I guess) has of them.Dave N. wrote: Fri Feb 09, 2024 4:19 pm I found a pin that my grandfather brought me from one of his trips to the Soviet Union back in the 70’s. He used to bring me coins, pins, and other odds and ends whenever he went there. My grandmother had a picture on her dresser of him standing in Red Square, wearing a trench coat and looking dapper. He worked for a company that made actuators, and they did a lot of business in the USSR.
It seems strange to me that my grandfather was spending so much time in the Soviet Union during the thick of the Cold War. I’d love to read his FBI file.

To be fair to yourself, once people start being disappeared here, you might find some personal resources that your ancestors were also unaware of until presented with an existential threat.Vibracobra wrote: Sat Feb 10, 2024 3:57 am Most of my ancestors bravely fought Franco in the 30's. I didn't inherit their bold genes. Not even one.
