[QUOTE=Timchik] Canadian living in Moscow here. As far as I know I’m the only doper living permanently in Russia, although giving my posting rate, I don’t know if I even qualify as a Doper… [/QUOTE] Of course you qualify! Not only are you a paid-up Charter Member, but as the only Russian Doper you’re a vital part of the **Empire of Cecil**. You give us the largest country on the planet, stretching from the Baltic to the Pacific! Thanks for the link, **mkl12**. I should have remembered it – I posted there! The number of additional names has made the _Zeldarizer[sup]TM[/sup]_ beg for mercy, however. That thread started in September 2005, which is less than one year ago, so anyone claiming residence outside the US in **that** thread is counted for **this** thread unless their current “Location” tag indicates otherwise. Posters from that thread who are now listed as “Guests” will **not** be included here because they are not **current** “SDMB members”. I’ll post the latest **List** around 4:30pm California time (i.e. about 35 minutes from now). It’ll be in two separate posts as it exceeds the maximum character count for a single post!. I’ve gathered as many names as I’m prepared to do for this batch. If anyone still wants to post further names for inclusion, I’m “shutting the gate” for today at 4:15pm PST (anything after that will be put in the next update). I’m still manually cleaning up some “Location” fields, but I can leak the fact that the total is currently **236** members, and that the Australia / NZ contingent are still ahead of the British Isles, and have thus been promoted to “second category” behind Canada! (This has the serendipitous side-effect of placing the British Isles adjacent to Europe in the list, which makes nice geographic sense). [Here are some keywords that (I hope) might make this thread easier to search for in the future: Non-US Dopers, non-USA Dopers, foreign Dopers, International Dopers, Expatriate Dopers, Expatriates, Dopers abroad, outside the USA, diaspora.] ---

Add another Ontarian. Thunder Bay, closer to Duluth MN and Winnipeg MB than any city even approaching 100 000 in population. ---

[QUOTE=Juliefoolie] Thunder Bay, closer to Duluth MN and Winnipeg MB than any city even approaching 100 000 in population. [/QUOTE] A small town, yet apparently home to another Doper ([Muffin](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/member.php)), although his presence there is unconfirmed. Perhaps tomorrow you could drive around town yelling his name and see if anyone answers? 😛 Thanks for the updates, **Northern Piper**. The links to the User Profile Pages certainly save me time as compared to just having the Dopername, but the rest of the info doesn’t actually help at this point since the _Zeldarizer[sup]TM[/sup]_ grabs and dates this automatically. “Location” information is **always** helpful, however: I wouldn’t have known that [kushiel](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/member.php?userid=37116)’s location (“City of Jails”) was Prince Albert, SK if you hadn’t provided that info – so thanks! I’m counting my posts #205 through #208 as “Non-US Doper List v2.00” ( **Zeldar** ’s were v1.x by this reckoning). The frequency at which the overall list gets updated will depend on how the thread progresses. However, we now have 8 further ListMembers, given **Northern Piper** ’s submissions, **Juliefoolie** ’s “stand up and be counted” post, and a few minutes of SDMB-reading-time of my own this evening (as mentioned above, when I see a poster’s name with a link, it’s a right-click then a left-click, and they’re added to the database – no extra work required on my part unless the “Location” is cryptic).

[/QUOTE] [This post](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=6128104&postcount=39) at least establishes her as a Saskatchewanian as of last year. **That** ’s the main thing: since you guys have just leap-frogged the Quebecers, I’d hate it to be due to a “false location”. 😉 If anyone else wants to correct any of the “Location” entries, let me know. The other fields are machine-harvested from the SDMB, but the “Location” is hand-massaged. Where Dopers have given two locations, I’ve taken the first (unless the second is an underrepresented “minority”, e.g. [Dominic Mulligan](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/member.php) gets counted as Edinburgh rather than Wigan because we need more Scots, and he probably spends more time at University than at his parents’ home (_right?_)). Reliable anecdotes from recent posts override the SDMB “location field” (e.g. [Dervorin](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/member.php) gets counted as “Bangalore, India” due to [this](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=7630879&postcount=9) post, plus that gives us an India-based Doper which we otherwise - bizarrely - seem to be lacking). I welcome any comments regarding the sorting of the locations (although I hope it at least appears _rational_!), plus of course any “Location” fields are negotiable as regards corrections or further info. Since it’s planned that this will end up as a Google Earth .kmz file, feel free to provide Lat/Long data (decimal degrees preferred)! ---

Thanks, **Antonius Block**! As **Antonius** said, I’m Canadian. For further clarification on my location, I live in Vancouver, but I’m originally from Nova Scotia. That’s where I left my heart. I left Nova Scotia in my location because Nova Scotia is more a part of me than Vancouver. 🙂 ---

_Bienvenue, Mademoiselle **Severiane**!_ There’s **always** room on the SDMB for another _Parisienne_, especially one whose favorite _parcs_ are [Buttes-Chaumont and Montsouris](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=6402949&postcount=9)… **GorillaMan** , **rinni** , and **MrDibble** , thanks for the “Location” clarifications. They will make it into the next “summary list”, which will be probably be **“non-US Doper List v2.10”** and will be posted once the List has passed 300 members. We’re now at a Doper count of **270**!
