This is from Annukka, who writes from Finland: "I'd like to comment on the Kivajat videos. I'm in Finland myself (and am a Finn) and don't see such folk dancers very often. I find it really touching that Americans dance Finnish dances in the States, wearing Finnish folk costumes and boots, pieksut. In Finland, it's a very small group of people who are interested in such a thing.
"Kuten mieheni totesi näytettyäni videopätkän hänelle: 'eihän tommosta näe edes Suomessa!'"
(Partial Translation:"You don't see such even in Finland!")
