Denmark? Mr. _Kouhia_ (!) is definitely from Tampere_University_of_Technology.
FInland. I admit that the addresses are not always very informative...
The confusion about the last/first name is due to the strange habit
of reversing the names in some official blanks in Finnish. The system
administrators have adopted this - even without a clarifying comma between
the last name and the first name(s). Why is it that way?
