If you're thinking about signing up for the military, please select "No".

Ha ha. Oh, this is not directed at anyone specifically. Nowhere Man, you realize that serving your country is a good thing, right?

ROFL. Correct, Nowhere Man: I am a former United States Marine. 03. Why would you ever think I would be ashamed of "admitting" this -- no matter how many posters here have not served in the military? No matter. Good poll. Semper Fi.

It's a decent poll. But apparently not Sticky-worthy!

It might have been sticky-worthy, however. I think a poll asking us to self-identify on all our international experience -- for example, "military service," "study abroad," "Peace Corps," "other NGO," "EFL instruction," "tourism," "international business," "more than one of the above (if so, which combination exactly? For myself, all of the above except the Peace Corps and international business)" -- might have better facilitated our exchanges, perhaps even encouraged new kinds of exchanges. I considered it but thought three polls were enough for one week.

And [Gopher]'s overflowing self-righteousness, as usual, comes through loud and clear -- as does his chronic oversimplification and outright mischaracterization of my views.


Stop following me. Wink
