I cant open the boxes with the Picsous just now, but I think that in a Barks
comic, Little Helper crash his lightbulb and later changes it by another
one... Believe it or not! (by Lt. Ripley)

The German reprint of that story (in Donald Duck Sonderheft) had similar
shortcomings. I think the German editor (hi Joachim!) once mentioned
they received a CD from the French publisher which contained rather
low-resolution files.

In WDC 201 Gyro uses a hammer to stimulate his thinking. When his
Little Helper tries to do the same, he smashes his light bulb. In the
next panel he runs to a board where different bulbs are lying and
takes one of them - unfortunately the biggest one, so that he can
barely walk anymore.
In "The Duck who never was" Gyro shows Donald his helper, who "got
broken years ago" and looks as if his bulb burned out.
So it seems to differ from story to story if Little Helper's bulb is
essential to life.

Well, one time... I don't remember the name of the story, but Gyro was tired of being weak so he invented a machine that gave him superpowers. Sadly he couldn't control them and destroyed everything he toutched. Including Little Helper's head.
I think Little helper worked pretty well without the bulb too though, because after that Gyro just opened a cabinet wit bulbs and told Little Helper he could take a new one himself.

Apart from the czech version that i once told you about (I just swa an ad
for it, so I know it's published)
I would also expect there to be published trees in those other eastern
european countries.
A poster like the family tree, with stickers that will make a reader buy 4
or 5 issues in a row is always a nice
thing for a publisher to put in the weekly, biuweekly or what it might be.
So I would expect Poland at the least has
also got a publication of the 3. I'm afraid I have no contacts in those
parts - Only an austrian friend who buys the new
comics when he has the oppurtunity - but the trees came out some years
ago. They would be very much like the
ones from the 3 egmont weeklies anyway.

I vaguely remember one story where Helper has to have his bulb changed,
but I'm not sure if that was Barks or another significant artist, since I
do remember it.

Indeed a nice gesture! And a nice birthday present too (I'm becoming 40 this

This may help me get over a midlife crisis... 8-)

On our IRC chatline, Soeren Krarup Olesen reports that his Danish name is
Hilarius Svindelk?r from Spj?ldl?se. Something like "Hilarious Swindle-pond
from Prison-less".
The guy (fat, bald, with glasses) seems to look like the original drawing

Virus "Kleez"
Message 189 -
2002-05-21 at 18:53:02
There is a virus called Kleez, currently having happy days on the
Internet. It sends messages using the infected computer's address book,
subject lines, takes from mails etc.
This basically means, that you can expect to get e-mails (including the
virus) that appears to come from friends or persons you know. However,
that does not mean, that this friend or person is infected themselves,
it only means that this friend is stored on the address list of the
infected computer. I was told, that certain versions of Kleez actually
presents itself as being a tool for protection against Kleez!!!
So, the advice is simple: Do never open attached files (even from
friends), unless you expect to receive such a file. Of course in some
cases the main text may be of a personal nature, so there is no
reliability doubt, but if a mail goes like, "Check this, quite cool" or
likewise, then just delete it.
As always, this is a Windows Outlook problem only.
So, to Stefan's recent mails; chances are that Don's PC isn't infected
at all, but his e-mail address certainly is in someone's address book.
Hope this someone reads this and is able to clean his system. (His
PC-system that is :-)

Even though the word is old (used in Sweden since before 1520), I think the
modern use of it in English comes from the modern word used in Scandinavia
(not only Norway) today. According to Ensyclopedia Britanica it comes from Sweden in the 50*s.
Otherwise the spelling in English would have been
different (my oppinion) as the spelling in Scandinavia has changed during
the years.

Meaning "Small house or room for bathing". In Swedish "Bastu", short of
"Badstuga" meaning the same as in Norse.
We can go on like this for yeras. All thouse words borrowed from one
language to an other.
I don't understand a word of Dutch but find it possibly to read a Dutch
newspaper. Most words are related to German, English, French or even Swedish
(from the Wallon language?) and (I think) I understand it.

The following stories are all by Carl Barks:
Mighty but Miserable - FC1184/4.
On page 6 Gyro breaks LH bulb, opens the bulb cupboard
and LH replaces the bulb for himself.
'The Firefly Tracker" - US 27/2.
LH repairs for himself the broken bulb with tape.
US 20/2, w.o. title, the story with the robot.
On page 1 LH has his bulb burned as he touches a wire of the robot.
He replaces the bulb himself on the same page.
But in 'Grandma's Present' - CP 8/1, he is unable to repair for himself..
On page 1 LH packs an extra bulb for the journey to Grandma.
On page 4 he offers the extra bulb to Gyro who replaces it absentmindedly.
That's all, I think.

Er, yes. Don mailed me that he wasn't the one who had the virus -- it was a friend of his. I don't make viruses myself, meaning that I don't really know very much about them. So I assumed that it was from Don just as it was stated in the e-mail. Sorry for the confusion.
