OK, so I have noticed that most of what is said back and forth, that is not directly related to trading, tends to be "heated" discussions of all different kinds. I also noticed that it seems to be impossible for people to give their point of view with out getting verbally abused.(Or for that matter to do the abusing them selves.)
It is very rare for a thread to stay nice and not get hijacked by someone with the inability to say what they have to say with out being rude about it. This mostly happens by making fun of the people and their ideas, or countries the people are from.
I love this board, and others, because people from all over the world can talk and share things about them selves and their countries that you just would not get otherwise. You could never get a fair shake on things abroad from the media. So talking with others from around the would gives a much better idea of other cultures.(DUH!)
SO this thread is for the sole purpose of being kind and talking about things that you like about other, people, cultures, countries, and so on. If you can't be nice than don't say it. I just know their hast to be some really good and nice people out there! Right?
So I will start with the first one:
I would like to visit both England and Germany as that's where my fathers family is from way back when.
I love the idea of having thousands of years of history instead of only hundreds.
There is just so much more history in Europe than North America.( Unless you are a native american.) There is a house somewhere close to the black forest that has been in my extended family for over 400 years. It belonged to the family of a woman who married into my family. The house was a gift to them, I believe, and had been in the other family for hundreds of years before that!
Being a student of cycles I tend to love history.(Funny it was my worst subject in school, and I hated it back then!)
