Try clicking on the links at the bottom, It changes the yahoo banner at the top but it is the same question pool for each site.
This question is on the "United States" site.

Simply because there is no UK site... There are different entrance page for various countries to the same database.
I am from the Netherlands, and get routed to the US frontpage, with the choice of watching all English language questions or just the US ones.

I am non-British and i use the site as i am from the republic of Ireland, therefore being non british.
It is called UK and Ireland remember. Not everyone in Ireland is British, remember that the next time you ask a question like this.

When we sign on to this we are connected to the world, and if we want only the USA we have to click that on the bottom of the screen. Sometimes I do if there are just too many people that cannot form an intelligent question...

Owlwings...since you have the answers, I know you know this one.....What language would you be speaking right now in the UK if the Americans (who don't have the answers) had kept out of the war in Europe and left you answer rich assholes to your own devices? Can you say Heil Hitler!

Evidently we in the US receive questions written in English from across the globe. This is a forum; why should a group be confined to one corner?
