Hah you speak so much like a Brit old bean that I sometimes forget you are not.
I guess we also know my own stance on this, true open borders. I think it a travesty of the highest magnitude that a human is not able to live, work, or move where he will. I simply do not undestand why the accident of the location of your birth ties you into certian geographical area. I work in IT, if I could I would move to where my particular skills are needed or in more demand to earn for myself and my dependants the highest possible wage, I don't know why as a species we cannot embrace this idea. The differances between us, between individuals and cultures excites me, I find it fascinating, I include amongst my freinds as many diffrant people, cultures and mindsets as I can. Otherwise I would be bored ridged, and lacking in experiance. On 18 Aug, 04:02, Chris Jenkins <[email protected]> wrote: > That was a dodge, old boy.
