The fist time this appeared on this list I just made a joke on how
"Atlanta, GA" should be interpreted, under the spirit of *real-world*
internationalization, as "Atlanta, Gabon" (cf. ISO 3166).

This second time, still with "uninternationalized" location, further
implies though that, for some entities, internationalization is nothing
but a buzz word, with scarce impact in its (parochial?) views and
practices.
