Got that right!

Hulpio? I guess you mean something like "Tervetuloa vaihtoehtoiset
viritykset -sähköpostilistalle!" which is "Welcome to the Alternate
Tunings Mailing List."

> raukkaus / sovinto / soposointu ...

That would be "rakkaus / rauha / sopusointu". By the way, did you
know that "sointu" is "chord" in Finnish?

I would write it like this:

"Kaikki tiet vievät n^0:aan"

We Finns surely have a weird weird language!

OK, thanks. I tried...

(not too familiar with Finnish vocabulary!)

(OK, not too familiar with the intricacies of Finnish grammer either...)

Rats! I tried "rauha" first, and when I translated back into
English it didn't come out right!

Yep... that's exactly the connection I was going for! :)

Yes, that really does look weird!
I would never have guessed that one.

OK, back to the on-topic posts. :)

I'll stick with the languages I really know...

love / peace / harmony ...
