Uhm sorry took a while to finish the poll. I didn't expect your answers to come so fast.
 
Why did you split up Spain, France, Belgium or Luxembourg and Germany, Austria, Swiss, Italy, Sweden, Finland, Norway or Denmark ?

I had to split Europe into two parts at least. Sorry - If an american had opened this poll he would proably have split American into East and Westcoast. I've done this to Europe because I'm european and I had got 10 choices available :-)
 
Where's the UK?

In the spirit of this usually being a moan fest about the poll options. :smile:

Two parts with only a few countries apparently? :-p

I'd rather chew my liver out! Damned Frenchies! :wink::smile:

Too late I already voted other.
 
That's going to be a very sh'tty poll as regards the brits... My bad :-(
 
I voted other as I am an independent. I currently live in the People's Democratic Republic of Northern South Jersey, which split from the United States in 1492 and has been fighting terrorism ever since. We are quite progressive, so when it rains in New Orleans, we get soaked. As you may know, Einstein spoke disparagingly of common sense, and so do we. Perhaps he was over in New Jersey when he said it.

Yea, you should PM one of the mentors to get it changed if you want a representative answer (I can't believe you thought of Luxembourg, but not of the UK and Ireland!) Also, I don't see why you split up Europe and then grouped together the USA and Canada!

:smile: That's humiliating, heh? I'm sorry. At least I didn't put in Liechtenstein and forgot about the UK

Please vote on the new poll. It's not public btw.

Why is Italy among those predominantly Germanic contries?
 
You forgot the Caribbean and Central America!, everyone forgets about us in their polls, hehe. Anyway, Saludos desde la República Dominicana.

I was just noticing that too. I live in the Divided States...it becomes the United States again sometime in mid-November.

Edit: I see the corrected poll here https://www.physicsforums.com/showthread.php?t=220801&page=2 so this thread is closed.
