Does anyone know a better translation for German "Sommerloch"? It's a word describing a period of time during summer when most people are on holiday and nothing interesting is happening because of that. -- [[User:Timwi|Timwi]] 01:16 22 Jun 2003 (UTC)

: Some translate it as the "summer pause" or the "summer hole". --[[User:Menchi|Menchi]] 08:56 22 Jun 2003 (UTC)

  • Bastard, Norway

I've removed this entry since I've never heard of it, and besides the name means exactly the same thing in Norwegian as in English so it does not seem very likely that it exists, either. -- Egil 22:07 Apr 24, 2003 (UTC)

acording too: [1] it exists. -fonzy

Excuse me, but this is the worst reference I've seen for a while. From geocities, with no mention of in which county or municipality. And no attribution. There is certainly no municipality, town or village with that name. And no river nor lake. And no farm. I'm pretty sure it is someone who thought they saw it. Sweden has a Båstad, for instance.

I deleted the similarly dubious "Cunt, Spain" pending a decent source. (possibly what the above website lists as "Cuntis, Galacia"?) -- Infrogmation 22:44 Apr 24, 2003 (UTC)

Why is Honolulu interesting or unusual?
