Looks like the list has grown.  No Chinese though, which is suprising.

Sorry guys, but I just get this picture of an Indian on a horse, bow and
quiver across his back, typing away at a notebook mounted on the saddlehorn.

And a water-proof notebook this gentl... ah, sailor.

Not to be offensive, but I'm certainly not impressed by being politically
correct and the image was just to clear.  Besides "native american" is
cumbersome.

Frankly I don't like "<such and such> american" terms, they in and of
themselves segregate, IMO.  FWIW, when mayor Norquist (Milwaukee) used the
term "european american" I just about dropped to the floor laughing.  Just
another person or if you must, a US citizen.  Or avid FBSD user. ;)

cheers to all!
