This is CBSI in the world. I'm John Batchel. The Business of America is Small Business.

I welcome back from Bergen, Norway. Gene Marks, the small business columnist for the Guardian

newspaper, UK and U.S. edition, our hometown newspaper, the Philadelphia Inquirer, and other distinguished

publications. We first travel to Bergen because it is said of Norway,

which is a very well-to-do country with not many people

considering the scale of their energy sales,

it is said to be one great big Tesla traffic jam in Oslo.

Gene was in Bergen.

Gene, is there a Tesla traffic jam in Bergen?

Good evening to you.

Well, John, I want to say it's a Tesla traffic jam at all, but I do have a few things to report

from Bergen, Norway.

First of all, it was colder in Philadelphia the entire time I was there than it was in

Bergen, Norway.

It was snowy the first day and then basically rain and drizzle.

Absolutely gorgeous.

And I do recommend people visiting Norway.

It's a beautiful country.

We were there for about two and a half weeks.

We, you know, just managed to talk to a bunch of, you know, business owners that are there.

And, you know, it is, it's an interesting, you know, dynamic for being a small business owner in

Norway. Bergen is the second largest city in Norway, by the way, on the West Coast.
