I don't think that would be the case at all.

I am not quite sure on the history, but I don't think there has been a time
where 3 European's were nominated.

Whether that is due to lack of participation on the board, or lack of interest
in general, 9/10 times the people who get nominated are the more active people
on the board.

And 100% of the time those people that get nominated are pretty good spirited
individuals who "chat" on here rather than "bash" on here.

Personally I don't feel it is about nationality at all. It is about
participation, attitude, and what someone has done/doing to help around here
or helping in other ways.

There was a time Vincent, that you were a very approachable, very intuative, and
a very easy going person to talk with. Personally I miss that Vincent. He was a
terrific guy. You could talk to _that_ Vincent about nearly anything and get an
excellent objective view about that situation, without no one being insulted, or
a program being bashed.

If you ever find that Vincent within yourself, please... please let me know. I
honestly miss the terrific conversations we used to have on ICC, here on the
CCC, and via telephone. They say time heals all wounds, so why not have both of
us bury whatever happened in the past, and just get back to where we used to be.
And it was only friends, but it was a friendship that I valued.
