Fish talk. I grew up by teh biggest lake around and sealife came with the mother milk. Growing up, access to boat(y)s and the archipelague was a natural thingy. In weekend the words was passed in school that this or that island was party this weekend. Boats full of beer, guitars and fishingrods usually came from all directions friday evenings and we usually stayed out until sunday noons.

Later we came up with more hardcore rules. Only floating food and spices was allowed. Food shall be fished or you starve. Those camp fires far out in the islands is a memory I keep. The fire is glowing slowly, the guitars has silenced, the big sun colours the sea red when it emerges from the water horizon. Only the few is awake.

Sometimes we braught guest. My sis once braught an american friend from NY on visit. I remembered once he asked me the strange question, staring out ower the landscape:" who ownes this islands?"

It wasso silly to me so I took it as a joke, but he really wondered. When I told him that here you cannot own coastlines and even if you should, its the "allemansrätten" ie all mens rights that overrules that ownership. It is your bound rights to camp where you want, unless its outside someones window, no mather who owns it.

He was surely puzzeled, but very satisfied.

Keep fishing!

Those Vfets are technically Jfet in construction. They are pretty immune to
static discharge as there is no metal oxide Gate to "punch through"
