    Well, haven't met anyone on the board, but thats simply because there is hardly anyone from my country here..and even if there was anyone, India itself is so huge that i wont have a chance to meet the fellow..unless ofcourse he takes the trouble to come and peep in through the windows

    I nearly did in the summer. I know two women from Estonia who live here in Austria. When one of them married, they did so in Estonia, and a few of our group went there. I hadn't been with the group long enough, though.

    Mind you, there's this 50+ guy who shares some of my classes, so university doesn't necessarily mean young

    Maybe it's just me, but I always imagined CornedBee as a little brown kitten with a cute little red ribbon around his neck. ... I'm not sure why, but that's how I see him.

    Perhaps you're colour-blind?
