Hope I didn't forget anywhere! (Almost forgot Europe!!) Advance apologies to Ireland for lumping them in with the Brits.  You can select for your "area" of origin or where you currently reside. (I wonder how many people will be silly and select Antarctica.) ------------- -- Frank Swarbrick Belief is not Truth. |

Yeah true. But he's more inclined towards Northern Ireland, which is British of course, I wasn't sure which part of Ireland was implied. -------------

I'd say probably Northern, at least that's what I would consider the Scandinavian countries to fall under. Lovely country though. I was there a couple of years ago with my dad. -------------

Bollocks. The Republic of Ireland has been independent from the UK since 1922. They fought for that autonomy and the distinction is recognised as a republic wef 1949 which transferred the remaining duties of a monarch http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monarchy_of_Ireland" rel="nofollow - to an elected president.

^ thanks that's very useful, a demarcation that corroborates the political distinction from one land mass from another. A subject clearly intuitive to Colorado inhabitants. A sovereign state is a nonphysical juridical entity of the international legal system that is represented by an elected government that has supreme independent authority over a geographic area. Ireland is stand alone and self governing. Let me know which part of that eludes you. -------------
