[Helgason, Helgi]
And then another time they had - Icelanders are very curious, they like to know why things work - so my granddad had an old one cylinder cast iron - oh those old chuggers that-[an old steam tractor], of course there's not many parts that come -nothing much comes apart on them. So they wanted to see how this thing ran inside, and they couldn't figure out any way to get it apart so they could see, so they took a big sledgehammer. They got inside it. And the only thing I ever heard my granddad say when he - as mad as I ever seen him get was, 'now now boys you shouldn't do that'. And that was it.
