    From which country are you?

    The title says it all. I wonder how many nations are represented on Optiboard besides the U.S. and Canada.
    Am I the only Dutchman?

    Welcome olympiakos!

    Dirk- I think our founder Steve Machol would put the number in the dozens.

    Most posters come from the US and Canada because we represent the greatest pool of the mere several dozen who regularly are brave enough to get ridiculed for showing our ignorance and/or work for an employer who let's us post.

    I think if english is a second language it is often difficult for others to post and to follow threads. We tend to assume everyone understands our abbreviations and slang.

    It’s so simple to be wise. Just think of something stupid to say and then don’t say it.
