Eva,
If you could shake your recollection for a name I would be grateful. I can
work through Italian but not Danish, Finnish. English, Spanish, French
would be fine.

There should be, if my vague recollections are true, Italian, Danish,
perhaps also Finnish work in the area of property/ concepts of economy.
Sorry for not being more precisely informed, there SHOULD be others around
here with a longer standing in the CHAT community who would know -- don't
know what kind of gremlins and glitches keep them from answering the
question.
