Discussion Overview
This thread is a poll aimed at determining the geographic distribution of members within the Physics Forums community. Participants are encouraged to share their country of origin and gender, with the intent of understanding the global localization of the forum's audience.
Discussion Character
- Meta-discussion
- Exploratory
Main Points Raised
- Some participants express their locations and genders, contributing to the poll.
- One participant questions the importance of the poll, suggesting it may be a way to seek dates.
- Another participant emphasizes the significance of knowing the gender distribution within the science community.
- Discussions arise regarding the categorization of regions such as Oceania and the cultural differences among North American countries.
- Participants share insights about the number of countries represented in the forum, with one noting at least 28 countries based on member profiles.
- There is a debate about the total number of countries in the world, with references to both UN and CIA statistics.
- Some members express frustration over the spelling of country names and the categorization of regions.
- Participants discuss the difficulty in extracting demographic data from member profiles due to incomplete information.
Areas of Agreement / Disagreement
Participants do not reach a consensus on the importance of the poll or the categorization of geographic regions. Multiple competing views regarding cultural similarities and differences among North American members are present, and the discussion remains unresolved on several points.
Contextual Notes
Limitations include incomplete member profiles affecting the accuracy of demographic data and varying definitions of geographic regions that lead to differing opinions.

Het is lang geleden, maar ik had wel cryptologie in Nederlands gestudeert. Nu heb ik geen kans op de taal te gebruiken - en dus maakt ik zo veel fouten (je ziet het vanzelf). 
Hartelijk bedankt, Monique.

There's quite a few Floridians here on the forums. I'm surprised.

Oh, hmm, I don't think I ever posted here (I think the last time I looked at this thread was the day I joined and wasn't sure if I was going to trust you all enough to reveal anything about where I am yet).
Female, Ohio, USA (but, just for the record, I started out my life on the RIGHT coast...oh, for those of you who insist on using compass points for directions, that's the East Coast...tee hee...I have yet to fully adopt the mid-western lifestyle).
