Author Topic: Non-US members report here for a survey of all countries represented on film-tech Joop de Gruiter Film Handler Posts: 33 From: Lund, Sweden Registered: Jul 99 posted 03-29-2005 12:30 PM                     Ah, I'm already in the list. I'm born in The Netherlands but have never worked there as a projectionist. I would say that New Zealand and Australia are the same continent. That's what I've been taught.

Population 997,000 people (roughly). Has the lowest populated province in Western Canada, drinks the most beer per capita in all of Western Canada Nothing beets an ice cold Canadian or in absence of Canadian, Pilsner would do...  |  IP: Logged Kris Dirix Film Handler Posts: 54 From: Antwerp / Belguim Registered: Feb 2005 posted 04-19-2005 01:54 AM                     Hi Michael, Two Belgians on the menber list is not much, so, you may add a 3rd.

Fremantle , Western Australia.  |  IP: Logged Glen Rich Film Handler Posts: 55 From: Nedlands, Western Australia Registered: Feb 2002 posted 05-02-2005 05:40 AM                     G'day Michael, From Cottesloe but have moved 8 Km up the highway to Nedlands Western Australia. To our peers, Australia is a continent whilst New Zealand is made up of 2 main islands several thousand kilometres east of Australias south east coast. The confusion could be from: a)that NZ was a colony of New South Wales, an Australian state for a short period of the 18th century, the poor buggers. b)that Australians and Kiwis have been fighting and dying together fighting other peoples wars for the length of our joint national histories. c)that Kiwis didn't until very recently need a passport to get into Australia, so there are a hell of a lot of them here!  |  IP: Logged Paer Hoegberg Film Handler Posts: 81 From: Borlänge, Sweden Registered: Apr 2005 posted 05-03-2005 11:43 PM                     Hello My Name is Pär Högberg. I have worked as a projectionist since 1985 in Borlänge, a middle sized town in the center of Sweden (approx 46000 people). Today in a 4-screen cinema built in 2004.  |  IP: Logged Justin Warren Goodrich Film Handler Posts: 2 From: Poway, CA, US Registered: May 2005 posted 05-05-2005 02:04 AM                     San Diego...gotta love the place!  |  IP: Logged Dieter Depypere Master Film Handler Posts: 343 From: Deutsch-Wagram, Lower Austria, Austria Registered: May 2005 posted 05-30-2005 04:54 AM                     I am from Austria. Do NOT mess up with Australia! Austria is in Europe, between Germany, Italy, Switzerland and Hungary. Besides we do NOT have any kangaroos. Maybe when I tell you that Austrians yodel quite often, maybe you know where I am from.  |  IP: Logged Michael Schaffer "Where is the Boardwalk Hotel?" Posts: 4143 From: Boston, MA Registered: Apr 2002 posted 05-30-2005 04:59 PM                        I think I was in Rosenbach as a kid. My father's side of the family is from the Steiermark. Don't remember much about the place though except there was a nice castle. But then every town there has one. In any case, there should be plates on the buildings we visited or stayed in, commemorating the event. Since Austrians (or half-Austrians, as you can see on the left) are ususally really good-looking (here is one more example), you should also send in a member pic.  |  IP: Logged Jason Greek Film Handler Posts: 21 From: Bridgewater, Nova Scotia, Canada Registered: May 2005 posted 05-30-2005 05:04 PM                     Canada, eh!  |  IP: Logged Jeremy Jorgenson Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1002 From: Chicago, IL, USA Registered: Feb 2005 posted 05-30-2005 10:54 PM                        I like how the only label on the above map is for Hawaii. Is it colored different from the other 49 states for any particular reason?  |  IP: Logged Michael Schaffer "Where is the Boardwalk Hotel?"

Haven't a clue why the map is the way it is, it was just the first one i came to, to be honest, i was only looking for a clear map showing nova scotia compared to the rest of canada! but you know, a good world map would help show where exactly everybody is that we're talking to...  |  IP: Logged
