Swanson was released from the Mental Hospital... his condition is stable, as long as he cooperates with his doctor's orders to not go near any ponds from now on.

Vermont was named the nation's smartest state in 2005 and 2006.[149] In 2006, there was a gap between state testing standards and national which is biased in favor of the state standards by 30%, on average. This puts Vermont 11th best in the nation. Most states have a higher bias.[150] However, when allowance for race is considered, a 2007 US Government list of test scores shows Vermont white fourth graders performed 25th in the nation for reading (229), 26th for math (247).[151] White eight graders scored 18th for math (292) and 12th for reading (273). The first three scores were not considered statistically different from average. White eighth graders scored significantly above average in reading. Statistics for black students were not reliable because of their small representation in the testing.The average effective spending per pupil in Vermont was $11,548 in 2008.

I figured as much Lit. At least it's quality stuff in the pics for you to look at, I put 100 rounds of FMJ through the 40 a few days ago. How much hassle, in US$ would it be to get something decent in Sweden? Hypothetically of course.
ponds from now on.
