[edit] Not Finnish but Swedish/Finnish

This catastrophe was not unique for Finland. It also occurred in Sweden. As a matter of fact currently the Swedish version of this page only mentions the situation in Sweden. It seems to me that a page must have more or less the same subject regardless in what language it's written. Also, since due to close geographical proximity this natural catastrophe did largely occur in parallel in both Finland and Sweden, it would make sense to change the subject of this article somewhat and write about the situation in both Finland and Sweden in the same article. --Smallchanges 14:49, 20 July 2007 (UTC)
