OT: Where are you from?

I know, one shouldn't end a sentence with a preposition. A nearby thread mentioned several locations "over the pond" from the States, and I was just curious where you all reside. Me, I'm in Oregon, where the state motto is: "We Want To Be Different From Every Other State, Just On Principle."

I'm in a tiny little town in the Catskill Mountains of upstate New York, named Hobart. And no, it's not where Hobart College is ;) Actually, the entire population of Hobart would probably fit in one of the dorm buildings of Hobart College with plenty of room to spare.

I got a little carried away when someone mentioned putting pins on a map.

I live in the New York Metropolitan area. And yes, many of us are actually friendly. This forum has some of the nicest people of any forum I have participated in.

Yo, Billy I'm a Napervillian too. I'll be sure not to offend you with any posts so you don't come and kill me. I do mostly wedding vids on the side part time with my GL1 and GL2. Vegas has been a beautiful thing since my conversion from Premiere.

Sherbrooke, Quebec, Canada

We had a technician from Toronto come and work on my machine last week. Nice guy really. I couldn't understand him very well though, what with him in a plastic bubble and all.
