After this site being online for a few
months the company in question wrote an e-mail
demanding that their name be removed from these pages by April 5th 2004 -
the question remains as to the legality of their e-mail, because the company itself (see their own text)
only accepts orders by fax

'skilled excavators and technicians take care to assure you of minimal
damage to your garden' says the text on the company-folder advocating their geothermic heating system. What this

activities in Finland can take twice as long as agreed upon; the front of the house

heating unit. The contract with NoName was made during the summer and things
