I don't know...there seems to be a rash of them lately. Could it be related to the recent software upgrade :confused: ...maybe the "search threads" utility has been altered?

Only new people do that.
Stumble upon (most likely) + Similar threads (why not old users?_)

Where your from, is not time related, so should not matter. I think it is good that more people speak up and let everyone know more about who we all are.
I would like to see more personal information about people and what their backgrounds are composed of.

When I see nothing about an individual, I tend to think of them as very young and inexperienced in life, until I find a few things in their post to say otherwise.

Just my thoughts:smile:

Hey, what uni do you go to? I know a guy from Freiburg who went to Karlsruhe and did his praktikum in South Africa at DaimlerChrysler, where I met him.

"Holland" is the same as "The Netherlands".

Don't tell people from the Netherlands that! :bugeye:

For clarity, Holland is a region in the Netherlands.
