the basic niceness of sweedes - ie, that they recieved in school basic
emotional education which enabled them to deal with difficult people and
situations.

Quite amusing. X-D

If you believe in things like that, then you just might be interested

The basic niceness of Swedes? Well, that characteristic is up there with the 
basic swimming ability of a large traffic light...

Seriously, I went to Swedish school/university for 17 years, starting in 1982. 
If there ever were any emotional education classes, I never noticed. Hm. So 
*that's* why I am evil!
