Again proof that humor also stops at the US'ian border.

I'm sorry but when the guy wrote, "What's wrong with Alaska, Hawaii,  
and Canada?" I just had to laugh. Hilarious! It's FUNNY, see?  
Especially coming from a Canadian!

Really, we need to print up a Humor For Dummies book (the "For  
Dummies" series are actually great for getting up to speed on a  
subject) and put it online for free.

Oh, and give my regards to the  Queen and all, 73 de Alex NS6Y.
