I have been to Iceland (spent some time at the Naval Air Station Keflavik) and the reason nobody can read Icelandic websites is the fact that their native language is fairly close to the original Norse which the Vikings spoke. It is even more difficult to speak since the human tongue was NEVER designed to bend that way! When you spend centuries in isolation that does things to you...

An extract from the official site of the Icelandic government (http://www.stjr.is):

"Dreifibréf landlćknis og Lyfjastofnunar vegna fiunglyndislyfja fyrir börn og unglinga. Sjúkrahústengd heimafijónusta LSH jókst um 21% milli ára. Undirbúningi breyttrar fjármögnunar LSH a› ljúka. Nútímalegar a›fer›ir til a› frć›a ungt fólk um kynsjúkdóma og varnir gegn fieim."

Wow.
