Re: Off Topic: Your Geographic Location
OK, this "Scandinavia/Rest of Europe" thing is just a way of masking the obvious: Europeans are a majority here... (ATM at least)
And, for any remotely reasonable definition of Scandinavia, I'm definitely in "the rest of Europe"

Re: Off Topic: Your Geographic Location
Americans/Canadians currently have the lead, by a slim amount. Are Mexicans considered North America? I've never had a good explanation of this, as the grouping is so muddled, and they are lumped in with Central America most often in my courses, while speaking of continents, clearly it is on the North American continent.
I'm here in Athens, Georgia, at the University of Georgia, in the US.

Re: Off Topic: Your Geographic Location
Germany(so i should prefer Ulm  ),
or in the Polls language:"The rest of Europe".
We could also make a vote:
Bush or Kerry
I don´t think that there are so many germany here, because the media in Germany were not aware of D2.

Re: Off Topic: Your Geographic Location
Anything north of the Isthmus of Panama is the North American continent.

United Kingdom - not part of Europe until I recruit some amphibians to cross the channel and invade France.

Mexico is geographically on the North American continent. There's no actual "Central America" as a continent, but Mexico is commonly lumped in with them as a matter of economic status: Their economic status is closer to that of Central American countries than it is to Canada or the USA.
