Confusion of meaning
Something to do while waiting for your flight instead of browsing the duty-free? Helsinki airport is decorated with stuffed hares and wolverine, and much of its rich animal life - beavers, lynx, bears - can be shot under a strict licence system.
Enquiring minds wish to know whether licences may be obtained in the departure lounge and whether guns may be hired there as well... though my own thought would be, and are these large predators any threat to travellers who just want to sit and have a drink and try to log on to the airport wifi?
Okay, that garbled sentence, in an article about wolf culling in Finland does follow on from this one: 'Finland has 300,000 amateur hunters, more than 5% of its population.'
But I would consider this serious punctuation fail, no? Do people not read over their text, and are there not editors?
Am somewhat reminded of my speculations about suburban foxhunts of suburban foxes, with concomittent suburban sabs. This entry was originally posted at http://oursin.dreamwidth.org/2570202.html. Please comment there using OpenID. View
