DON'T EAT THE TROLLS! THEY DO TASTE BAD!
After searching for "America" on Wikipedia, I got the following result:
"The Americas (sometimes referred to as America) is the area including the land mass located between the Pacific Ocean and the Atlantic Ocean, generally divided into North America and South America[...]"
When searching for "American", I found:
" [...] some think the common usage of "American" to refer to only people from the United States should be avoided in international contexts where it might cause confusion. [...] While the use of "American" to refer to people and places in other nations of the Americas was long fairly common in the United States, this use has declined in recent generations, to the point that some people are unconfortable with this usage."

CHOCK! during this thread you should have learned that wikipedia is GENERALLY discriminating EVERYONE.
that includes canadians who are NO americans!

note to the dutch: doesn't radman look like the rew used to, back in the day of CHOP?

The Rew was one major reason for me to enter the pc scene. Thereforre he sucks.
.. and of course all people who look like him too. And Americans, which are all canadians anyway. Except Truck who's dorkyness is totally nationality independent.
You don't read a thread for about 20 hours and it is totally filled up...

"Coming to Europe and actually being more involved DOES help the perspective."
Haha Truck, most of the time you live in UK, this is like the Canada of Europe. They aren't really USA and they aren't really Europeans (at least the don't see themself as Europeans). ;)
But it's always nice to see you at a party.
I agree to what ps and gargaj said about the scene, no need of quoting that.
For the US-scene vs. European-scene thingy: I really liked to see mails from sceners from South Africa, Australia and China (!) in my mailbox in the days and weeks before Breakpoint and I really'd like to hear from a demoparty from that (and other) countries. I remember coma3 being commented as a really good party and really'd like to travel (at least) once to such a party outside Europe. But since this enormous amount of SPAM for one midsize party in/on websites and forums I visit regulary I don't have the wish to attend it. It's on you (people of the demoscene of the countries north of Mexico) to change this opinion - at the moment you are like "The Party" ... respect for it decreases more and more.
RaD Man: Some of your wikipedia-opinions make sense to me and I can agree to them, but there are some stupid ones, too. Keep the context in your mind while posting on the wiki. :)
And now for my favourite (and last) part of this post: bashing of Northern Dragons. :)
Guys, what do you want? I've read post from several members of yours and the only one who doesn't seem to be a dork (I know him and I respect him very much) comes from ... Europe.
We had fun with Patrick Groove and now with his mates, too.
Polaris... "[...] Canada is America simply because they are in North America; then obviously your are German if you are in Europe."
Ok, once again: Canada is _in_ America like Germany is _in_ Europe (Middle or Western Europe, to be clear). I see myself as European, have no problems being called European.
"[i][...] of the North American Demo scene.[i]" and a "I AM NOT AMERICAN" flag directly under it...
\o/ You aren't in the European demoscene, you aren't in the (North) American demoscene, you are in the demoscene of ... haha, must be the 3rd world then. :)
Make demos, not war! :)

^^ I like how all of the "exceptions" are complete BS.
WAR WORKS!!!

As a proud German (according to ND), I'd like to take this opportunity to say:
Heil Bush!
Heil Bush!
Genau! Bush ist weltmeister!
und Havoc ist de grootmeester van het schetenlaten!

Now I'm really confused. Am I British, Canadian, American, or European...?
Man, I feel a citizenship identiy crisis looming over the horizon.
thom: Use the power of your brain, it helps. :)
Canada is neither the USA nor in Amera.
British ppl often declare (as I've read in the media) they aren't European. We all know, they (at least the government) sympathize very much with the USA (economy, politics, bla) - but they aren't (in) the USA, ... yet.
If my view of the UK is wrong, please correct me.

While the British government might regularly kiss up to the US, the average man on the street has a low, burning contempt for "Americans".
I checked bash.org for 'Canadian' and I discovered that they all live in igloos, so I guess they aren't part of North America, but instead, antarctica.
So, hail to our proud Antarctican brothers and sisters from Canada!
