Dutch Link

[MollyM/CA]

My friend Annie sent me this link:

http://www.bushokje.org/

to a webcam placed at a bus stop in a city (Oegstgeest) in Holland.

I've been having fun with it in a separate window, peeking when slow pages load or when "thinking."

Annie has a page of her own, and a cascade of Dutch links with it:

The bus site is all in Dutch, but don't believe all you hear about what a difficult language Dutch is.

Ja, zat bug in code. Had JAVA-applet met nieuwe compiler gecompileerd. :-/ HOORT niks uit te maken, maar na compileren op een oude compiler deed hij het ook weer in oudere browsers. -- DANK AAN PATRICK (en anne's computer) -- zonder wie/wat ik dit niet gezien had... (ik hou op, begint teveel op een speech te lijken :-/)

Frequently when hanging out in some of the IRC chatrooms the conversation would switch to Dutch and I rarely had a problem following the conversation. Given how much of early Dutch and Plaat-Duetsch was incorporated into the early English language this shouldn't be much of a surprise. Actually, I find Dutch far easier than Hoch-Duetsch!
