Europe isn't that big, and shipping expenses shouldn't be very high for a relatively small parcel. It'd be required that participants tried to arrange the waiting list in order of proximity to make shipping cost lower. So the parcel could travel from US to UK or Iceland then going to the next closer participant. You'd just need to set the rules, trial term, checking participants identity and good will, etc. Just like you'd do within the US but across the Pond.

Better than X-Cans V1?
He's referring to the Headamp Gilmore Lite (now discontinued) or the GS-1. Those use the Dynalo circuit in SE. This same circuit in balanced, if I'm not wrong, is the Dynamid. You can try to DIY, circuit and parts needed are still available. There's a Chinese manufacturer making a version on the cheap the Sheer Audio HA-006.

New setup help
My suggestion: iTouch or iPod (I use ALAC but use whatever pleases you) --> LOD --> Pico Slim --> Audio Technica ESW10. Since these have been discontinued, ESW9 can be a nice second best option. This is what I use when on-call and leisure trips.

There's been an explosion at the Fukushima nuclear plant...
Also Craig and the rest of our Japanese mates. I wish they're all fine. Jacob, no worries, I get the point. Hopefully the meltdown doesn't happen and no new big quakes either. It might be terrible a new damage on the structure.

What are you listening to Part the Third
I just finished this little gem: Ben Webster & Joe Zawinul - Soulmates And now listening to this Lou Reed - Berlin Funnily enough I've just noticed one of the reasons I like Amanda Palmer

There's been an explosion at the Fukushima nuclear plant...
I hope you're right Jacob. I fear the companies involved in the plant aren't completely honest, so security measures aren't what they're supposed to be. They're scoring the hazard at 4/7 and I'm not sure how much scored Chernobyl on that scale

Holy shit. Awful indeed. Best wishes to those people, I hope the nuclear plant holds on. Chernobyl was awful enough already

Glad you found it interesting, sorry for the raving, it's not very frequently that I can see my town used as background for that kind of pics. SFO, NY, Paris, Rome or London are way more photogenic

That city is Madrid, right the confluence of Gran Via with Alcalá. Behind the Schweppes ad there are very expensive hotel suites. They shoot there the film "The Day of the Beast" (el día de la bestia) by Alex de Laiglesia, who was one of the Oscar nominees this year. The painter Antonio Lopez (rather respected, his works sell for high hundred thousand euros) captured that street (Gran Vía) in several of his works
