What kind of imperialistic dogma is this...? Surely this can't be coming from one who dedicates their time to the significance of 'place'... The people from these countries may be of a different mind...

Gawd, I only wish I had gotten Burkina Faso or Nepal! I totally pooched it. My best shot to get on the scoreboard was "Where is Tonga?" Arg... Missed it by *that* much! The others I didn't get were totally insignificant flyspecks on the world map that should have been colonized by proper countries years ago... Feh! Why couldn't I at least have gotten one like, "Where is The Great White North, Eh?" Or "Name the six states that border Iowa?" (Most Usonians can't get that one either!) This "quiz" was humbling... - Bill Thoen --------------------------------------------------------------------- List hosting provided by Directions Magazine | www.directionsmag.com | To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Message number: 14513 --------------------------------------------------------------------- List hosting provided by Directions Magazine | www.directionsmag.com | To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Message number: 14522
