Ladies and Gentlemen,

Just a thought.

One of the most interesting things about this forum is its international scope. We\'ve got people here from all over the world.

Sometimes it\'s especially interesting to read posts when taken in a cultural context.
Besides that, it\'s fun to know you\'re exchanging information with someone on the other side of the planet.
Now I realize that a lot of people are into anonymity and privacy, but please give some indication where you live.

My location that appears at the bottom of this post is far more specific than most, but it really only narrows your ability to find me down to a half-million people or so. [img]images/icons/wink.gif[/img]

So if your really paranoid, just put in the continent on which you live.
But a country or city would be nice too! [img]images/icons/laugh.gif[/img]

It\'s simple to do through the profile update.

So toss us all a greeting from your part of the world, a \"Howdy!\', or a \"Bonjour!\", or a \"Buenos Dias!\" or a \"Hello!\" or whatever you\'ve got.

\'Round here it\'s \"Yo!\"
(Uttered in the manner of Sylvester Stallone in the \"Rocky\" films.)

Thanks!
