I did not hear about the Belarussian elections, yet... I heard about the Polynesian ones, though... It seems to be a hard job.

No, because I prefer not to say what I think about it. Plus a thread just for it would be required, while I don't think there will be that many comments on the elections in belarus (or the Polynesian ones). There has just been some in Tunisia and Afghanistan as well, but I don't know anyone here that is local and might comment on them.

Given the fact that I was born there, lived half of my life there and came to visit some parts of it with time, I'd say yes.

What about St. Kids and Mavis Islands or Cayman Islands? What about Greenland or Antartica? Don't tell me there are no programmers there!

No, but everything is in my mind. This forum is only in my mind. This site in only in my mind. You all are only in my mind. URSS/Russia and its tzar, V. Putin, is only in my mind. And I am the weakest link today... SurrogateGod may save the world and deliver it from me.

Although a rare species, I'm sure that some exist in small numbers . They sometimes migrate to other areas in search for more plentiful job markets, more interesting projects and larger paychecks.

The first step is to look at something from both sides of the table . The second one is to keep a level head and not have some people tell you what you should think. When you're at that stage, you should figure out what to do next.

Additional question:
What must check a Brazilian? Brazil or South America?
Luxembourg has a population of about half a million now (450.000 to be more exact). And it's included because I am from Luxembourg and asked pretty much at the start to have it included. It's a tad late for including other countries now, since so many people have already voted and it would be impossible to reshuffle the votes correctly.

Marina! You seem to have overlooked our humble forum (and consequentially, the following thread) : http://codeguru.com/forum/showthread.php?t=314517 (I think you'll find it worth your while)

Hi, Elrond.
I'm short of time this moment and probably I will give some comments later, but the general overview you can get here:

Re: Where are we from ?
Thanks for the answer dimm. I knew most of that, the only thing is that I just wanted to have the internal opinion of a person. Well, when you will have time then !
