I think you should be given additional prize points for asking a very good question with a self contained constructive answer.
Perhaps yahoo might change its format here, with an additional two boxes to tick. 1) country of origin of sender 2) specific, or all countries to reply.

Lol. Yes, I wish people would say where they are, or where they are from. I think it is particularly important with political or social questions.... I tried answering a social question the other day that was meant for the UK, and I wrongly assumed that when they said "this country" they meant the US. Oooops! It definitely gave me a different perspective.

What got here first, the poultry or the egg? i do no longer comprehend how many circumstances this question has been asked and individuals seem to on no account become tired of inquiring for some unusual reason. :)

I think it's fun to "hear" where people are from, and yes, it does sometimes influence the relevance of an answer. Don't know why anyone would take issue with this.

I asked a similar question and was told to mind my own business. I got so much abuse that I withdrew the question. Believe me these twits hide behind their anonymity, because they are mostly school kids.What are called keyboard tough guys. UK East Coast.

This is the USA signing in. That is a good question. I guess they don't think it is important enough to mention. Many people who ask and answer questions are not putting a lot of thought into the process...they simply want to make a connection.

You say 'tomato', and I say 'tomato'.
I think it is great that answers to serious and sometimes amusing questions are from the people of the World. Peace be with you all!

Mainly because they think they are posting in their countries own version of Y!A, and then find that all English Language questions are lumped together.

I think that they should put the country of origin under your avatar. I'm from Nebraska, USA
It would be neat to see what answers you get from which countries.

Has it ever not occurred to you that maybe some people might live in a country where they live in fear of the Taliban or the religious police, or Big Brother?
I kid you not. These things are real. I know people who have dealt with it.
