Introduction of the Norwegians makes me wonder if somone from Minnesota will pop up. A possible connection is that one of my cousins is married to Scott Frost, brother of the show's coproducer, and they moved from Minnesota to L.A. so that he could work on Twin Peaks. Our family roots are Norwegian and English. Another odd personal coincidence was that we saw the pilot and 1st episode while in Snowbird, Utah -- in a valley below a mountain named Twin Peaks. Not that it looks much like the Seattle "Twin Peaks" area, where I lived in the '50's... ---------------- Paul Raveling Raveling@isi.edu
