We have dinner at Cafe
Paris.
A fun coincident; patrons
at the next table are a well known Finnish scientist in our field
and his wife. We both know him by name, but have never met
personally. How do we find out? We ask the server if the wine we
are about to order is too sweet, and she asks the next table, as
they have chosen the same wine. We get the answer in clear Finnish
:)
