Since mods/admins can see IP#, I wonder if you guys have any statistics about the % of non US dopers. And if there is further statiscis about how many are from countries where English is not 1st language.

I get, just from gut feeling:

US: 65%
English, non-US:25%
Other: 10%

Then, there are of course US expats, residing in France, Germany, Sweden, SaudiArabia ASF...

English, non-US:25%
Other: 10%

I would guess (only a guess) that your "Other: 10%" might not be sufficient to cover all the Irish and Australian Dopers.

With English, non US, I meant English speakers, thus covering the Micks, Kiwis, Canucks...

Well, as far as I know I´m the only Uruguayan specimen around here...
From South and Central America I think there are less than 10 people actively posting on the boards.

My guess would be US nearer 85%.

I seem to recall a few Singaporeans, me included. There's also Shijinn, and.. um.. a few more... um..

About 5, I guess.

There's a disproportionately high (considering the tiny population of the country) representation from Ireland. Even though some of us are expats.
