So, looking at the web logs, I know that we have players here from about 30 different countries. I just thought it would be interesting to put somes names with places.

My wife and I live in Boulder, COlorado in the U.S. Where the winter has returned for the weekend. We actually moved here pretty recently from Seattle, which is my home town.

Glad you made it through in one piece, jstkdn! Ah, yes - '98. Good times. I had to dodge the protests and gunfire to go to work every day after the election. Just after that settled down, there was a kidnapping victim held an apartment just below our place and he escaped by throwing a couple of grenades in behind him and shooting the place up with an AK... But I have to say I'm glad I stayed. I have a four year old son who's lived here (Phnom Penh) all his life and it's much, much safer now.

... I did some work up in Siem Reap earlier this year and Siem Reap is still one of the poorest provinces, outside the town and temple complex. I could go on and on, but I can hear people yawning...

Glad to hear it is safer now. It was just tooooo much in 98. I mean the 10 days I was there, I got my head blown off 2 times, had to leave certain areas quickly as issues starting ocurring guns everywhere, had to get used to seeing UN tanks to support an election. That is MAD please for anyone to grow up in, even if you are used to war, like the Cambodians are.

Uhm, you don't happen to have a really good digital picture of Angkor or one of the other temples do you?????? I am looking for one to blow up like mad, particularly if they have lots of colors in them (like the reflection in the water, sunset something like that.)

It is just in that word....almost. But sometimes I think, my different heads are talking to each other. :)

Someone say something?

Hi there Sana from Bosnia!!!

I'll take a look through my pictures for you jstkdn and see what I can find. I will also be up in Siem Reap next week with visiting family, so maybe we can get a good one while we're there.

I'm in Seattle, WA. Wish I could be more exotic for you. I'm Argentinean, if that means anything ^_^

That would be AWESOME Megan. I have been looking for one for ages. But the stuff I get from the internet are too low quality....and let me not start about my own pictures. Baaaad.
