in each country. Please respond to this post with the name of your

percent of the posters here live in the USA. Let's find out.

I live in the USA.

I live in the USA and was born here, but not on the 4th of July,
you can betcha that. But looking above and seeing that - USA - made
me laugh. It reminded me of how it's often chanted at sporting events
- "USA, USA, USA!" I remember the first time I heard it was while
watching a tv wrestling match between the villainous "Sheik" and some
American dressed in red, white, and blue. The crowd would chant USA,
USA - rooting for the american to destroy the evil menace.

But later (and this is where the humor comes in), I began to
notice the chant even in sporting events in which all the contestants
were American. It's a mindless follow-the-leader type thing - like
the backwards baseball cap. It's right up there with, "Get in the
hole!", at golf matches. In the beginning this would be yelled only
while the golfer was putting or chipping or shooting from a distance
in which the cup could be reached on one swing. Now I hear them yell
it even when the golfer is teeing off from 500 yards out. As soon as
he hits the ball they yell it - "Get it the hole!" That and the USA
chant sort of remind me of each other.

Not exactly endearing yourself to the regular posters here are you?
Continue you display this kind of arrogance and you will find you have no
one to talk to.

I think that's true of Usenet in general, mostly US - that's where I am.

Obviously you don't understand that there are so few people here WORTH
talking to. I've already decided to leave. The tiny bit of actual food
talk here is so small now that it's not worth the bother of putting up
with all the assholes. You people deserve each other. There are about
a thousand food groups on the net. I'll go find one where it's
moderated and the assholes like those who have taken over rfc aren't
allowed.

New Zealand.

And the issue wasn't the fact that I live in NZ, but the fact that you
assumed I lived in the USA.

I also have been confused with USAians from time to time and I
personally find that hard to take. The recent "W-S NC" assumption
comes to mind.

I read about an [Inuk] hunter who asked the local missionary
priest: "If I did not know about God and sin, would I go to
hell?" "No," said the priest, "not if you did not know."
"Then why," asked the [Inuk], "did you tell me?"

Well, as this is my last post here and certainly my last time reading
any of the attack/counter attack nonsense that has taken over rfc,
I'll say only one thing; it took me only twenty minutes to find a
moderated food/cooking forum on up-to-date software that will be where
I enjoy posting and reading. RFC is nothing but a group of about a
dozen small-minded bullies who post nasty comments back and forth at
each other. You people enjoy your non-food group. I'll be in a real
one with real, polite people who know how to talk to each other
without attacking each other in every post. Good riddance to all of
you. You deserve each other. You'll note that I didn't share where
I've gone. That is simply to keep you bunch from even thinking of
going there. Enjoy your dog fighting pit.

Everyone knows la cuisine quebecoise consists solely of poutine,
tourtiere, and tarte au sucre. Anybody mentioning any other foods must
be from this side of the border.

Yep, and right at the top of the list of people not worth talking to are
those who come in, say stupid things, have a hissy fit and then come
back with a different user name..... like Alfie / Landon/ Robert

I think you need more than just USA since there are many distinct areas.
