I’m noticing alot more dopers from New Zealand and Australia hanging around the SDMB. So in the interest of finding out how many of us there really are here (and if we have enough numbers to take over the SDMB) I’m starting a roll call thread. Could all Dopers from New Zealand and Australia please report for duty. ---
