 Hello Neighbor - well sort of I like the way you tell us your location and look forward to studying your link when I get home. Thank you, RoundFour |

RoundFour, I could look forever at your pictures from all over the world
- except for Denmark which you seem to have managed to steer clear of  May I bring your website out in the open all crunchers who have not yet KLiKed on your name to see your Forum information? You are absolutely right about a Winter Wonderland in Lindenberg, Allgäu. May I link to this series of pictures in particular which includes a picture of the view from your bathroom? Thank you for sharing this with us, RoundFour |

 chess, who would have guessed? I take it you're fond of chess.  OMG, it almost rhymes ....At any rate I happened to notice you were in our achives and edited your file. Curiosity is a specialty of mine, so I snuck in to see what you had done. You had added Copenhagen, Denmark the very place where I sit on my stone - it's a cold job these days, I tell you. I'm so very pleased to meet a compatriot. We are quite a few, but only few of us are active in the Forums. Thank you, chess  - I hope your example will inspire many more crunchers from all over the World. It's so nice to put geography to a name  |

It's the holidays, it's the doldrums, it's time for leisure activities.
Let me promote this pet project of mine once more, please.  I - and obviously a lot of other members - like to know where the other guy comes from.I notice people looking for information about this cruncher and that, and since this thread was started several years ago, conditions for finding any information have not improved. On the contrary, I'm afraid. If you are one of those looking for information of another cruncher's country in vain, you might want to look at which information you offer yourself to the other guy. You could perhaps put a bit more in your Forum Profile. A country is fine. If your live in a country with states, provinces, or regions, it's even finer if you state this location as well. Even finer again: if you really put your mind to it - is a city or town. It's a small world - and it's a small effort  |

At 700 UTC I ran a random check on the 'Recently active'.
There were just five and their status is like this: Sheridon - active for five years, no country AnRM is from Canada Cedrikson - active for one year, no country Zeonfx - active for seven years, no country BUT Zeonfx just requested a SNURK sign , and that is often a circumvent, secondary way to learn a cruncher's nationality - and I'm about to believe that this campaign already paid off! Zeonfx's Forum Profile now says Hungary  What a fast turnaround Did you plan to do it anyway, so we just had this perfect timing? Or were you inspired?  BKraayev - active for 12! years, no nationality in the Forum Profile, but the SNURK sign displays a Maple Leaf. See! That's what I mean by the positive side effect of a SNURK sign  |

BKraayev - active for 12! years, no nationality in the Forum Profile, but the SNURK sign displays a Maple Leaf. I would have guessed The Netherlands! The sound of Kraayeveld was somewhat harsher and rougher than that of Bintangs and the first three singles were produced by Boudewijn de Groot. |

My guess was a descendent from a former Soviet republic - in the Caspian Sea/Aral Lake region, possibly Chechnya.
Now, a funny thing happened this morning here in newly promoted Captain TKizzle's new Easynews team thread. I made conversation with thunder7 thinking he was American - Americans love woodworking of all kinds - and along the way I asked him where this golf course on which his elm had grown was. Ta-da! This morning thunder7 filled in his Forum Profile with: Netherlands |

Actually, we could have guessed it, since thunder7 linked to this picture (het mooiste hout = the most beautiful wood).Now, a funny thing happened this morning here in newly promoted Captain TKizzle's new Easynews team thread.

 I have been sleeping  Of course! Our thunder7 is racing and crunching like a rolling thunder as he is on the brink of passing … ME  :Country Statistics for The Netherlands. … adriverhoef 270,979,340… Only three or four more days to go!  It means that I will lose my 8th place  just before the end of the year!   |
