Heh, it's funny you mention that - most Asians have trouble guessing my
kids country of origin (South Korea). Of course, I could start a whole
other thread about how people just love to come up to us and ask us
where are kids are from. Of course, that's not as bad as them asking if
my kids are siblings ("Yes, by law, they are siblings."). But again -
that's a whole other thread. ;)

Haha reminds me of a joke from this Asian standup comedic.  he's a
physician/doctor , and complained that whenever an Asian patient comes
in, people refer them to him, as if Asians all speak the same
language...."The problem is that I'm korean, and they're vietnamese, you
know.....", and he proceeded to slant his eyes upwards, then downwards,
respectively.  AHAHA that was fricken hilarious.  There is basis in that
tho.  Us asians (generally) can pick out each other apart by subtle
difference in the eys and cheekbones, and sometimes skin color.

  I thought the funny thing was that you came up with "racial"
classifications
  that all use different basis.

  black = color
  Indian = country
  Asian = continent/region
