This is all getting very nationalistic.
We'll be measuring the relative sizes of our members soon.

Hey yes COMPETITION: Rank the members regarding their size.

But honestly this feature is another funny one and now I've one more reason to spend more time here: so many things to play with (timezone, flags, ID-no, post counts, buddies,...)

Thanks Mark You're putting me out of a job

Ah, I see Gangerolf- Although now I wonder how Norway acquired an island in the south pacific? "Kon Tiki"!!!

Eli- I don't think they had 15 members, but it might have been an oversight.

South Pacific

I think they stumbled over it on one of the expeditions to the South Pole.

the facts

http://www.qsl.net/zr1dq/3y0c-03.htm

The increase of whaling in the Southern Ocean brought British and Norwegian Expeditions to the area, looking for bases. Britain already had a well established base on South Georgia, and therefore agreed to waive any territorial claims on Bouvet Island in favour of Norway. The research ship Norvegia called in 1927 to establish a shelter and a cache of provisions for shipwrecked sailors. Bouvet became a Norwegian Territory by a Royal Norwegian Decree of 23 January 1928. Riiser Larsen, the famous explorer, flew over the island several times in 1929 when the Norvegia called again to collect specimens. As on their first visit, stores were landed for the assistance of shipwrecked sailors, this time at Larsøya.

not a bad guess eh

I demand that people use their REAL countries as flags, so that I could have Latvia in the lead...

Words like "real", "true" and "accurate data" are not what the internet is about.

Oh, and Alex. Welcome back, man! Did you have a nice vacation?

Very nice, albeit rainy. But I like rain.

Thanks for asking, Kamrat.

I hope not. I wouldn't like to embarass you all.

Thanks Gangerolf
I never knew that Norway managed to colonize up into the late 1920's

Norway- the great colonial power

You´re embarrased over your small member?

[Alex]

Kamrat: believe it or not, no pics at all. I forgot my camera at home. And I forgot to ask my father to borrow me his cam. I guess I was too relaxed...

But I'll post pics from my trip to Bonito last March, if it suits you...
