Possibly the only one with Maori roots on the forum?
Myself, 1/4 English, some Scottish thrown in for good measure and some others.

| So, initial results indicate that this forum is populated largely by ethnic white males - are we genetically predisposed to find new and amusing ways of blowing holes in stuff, or are there non-english spudgun sites out there that make our sampling inaccurate? |

Most Germans would be ethnically white so that wouldn't really affect the results. |

Did you guys know that if not for ONE vote, Americans would be speaking German? I can't quote where i heard that, it's just something i remembered. |

Yes, but you said:
| Quote: | | or are there non-english spudgun sites out there that make our sampling inaccurate? |
Last I checked, Germany's national language was German 
Though that's besides the point, you said inaccurate sampling, therefore as Germans being mostly caucasian, a German spudgun site wouldn't fall under that catagory. So you are right  |

I meant English language spudgun sites ;p
It would be interesting to see if there was a genetic link though - for example, why were Europeans so quick to develop firearms over hundreds of years while African tribes remained content with sticks and stones? |
