Well,
except that we are not as dysfunctional.

That's amazing!
Since my sons have grown up (well, almost) and are out on their own, I've discovered a whole new world. Due to the nature of my business, I was forced to learn to use a computer. Now, I can't imagine life without it...kind of like life without a microwave! Through my computer, Bleeping Computer, and the diversity of cultures represented here, I have the opportunity to virtually 'travel' anywhere.
My point, I appreciate those of you who keep BC a great place to be. The atmosphere, and of course, the cumulative, technological genius found here, are what attracts so many and keeps us coming back.

One has to be "PRO AMERICAN" to recognize that the UN is dysfunctional?
I did not know that.

I have a question about the "ocean" residents. Where exactly does one reside in the Pacific Ocean? Is it just a general term for those whose location is not listed?
Thanks.
Thanks.

Think you're about that tink.
Had a look in the atlas and was surprised at the number of tiny islands in the south Pacific Ocean!
Edit; Meant to say " think you are right about that tink."

It just caught my eye and I figured I would ask.
There must be many places that are not listed here.
Even Hawaii has more than just eight islands.

The Republic of Ireland is not part of the UK. In the countries field it is simply listed as Ireland.How about having the UK removed, and broken down into it's 4 countries. Scotland, England, Wales, Northern Ireland

The power of accurate observation is commonly called cynicism by those who haven't got it.
