The first citation has a ;), the other don't. And there is a reason for 
that, viz. that I mean it. It might really be possible that the asylum 
seekers and economic migrants that go to Scandinavia have a different 
composition. It might also be very possible that for some reason the 
papers in Sweden present their analysis different from the Dutch. So we 
end up here with the funny situation that I acknowledge your point and 
you think that I try to 'undermine every single point' you make. 
Interesting (note the absent emoticon).
