        Hmm, spose you're right. It's just that I don't see many
Helsinki-fanatics but I see many Turku-fanatics around here at least =).
(And no, I won't accept "that's because Turku is better than Helsinki"
as an answer.) 
        BTW, are people from Turku in risk of getting hit in the face when they
go elsewhere in Finland, like we Helsinki people are? =)

        Hmm, I suppose then that I don't know so many "regular" people from
Helsinki. Which just might be true.. But still I think the "dismissive,
self-centered, �ber-cool people from Helsinki" stereotype isn't any more
closer the truth than the same words about nearly anyone living anywhere
(at least in Finland). It's maybe just our nasal accent that makes other
people think that the way we talk shows that we think we are so cool or
sumphink.. =)

        Ok, then it's just the good ole' 20/80 ratio that applies to almost
anything. =)
