Its probably been asked before, but is there really so many ppl from so many different countries on this site?? KaGeZ, for example, are you really from Japan?? The admins seem to be separated by thousands of miles.. i'm just wondering how they managed to launch this site.. and how does everybody speak english so dang well if they really live in these exotic countries?

Yeah, I believe Kagezsan is really in Japan.
It wouldn't suprise me if everyone really is from where they say... as for everyone speaking English, well, they probly wouldn't have found the site unless they spoke enough english to use a computer. (^_^) And, English is taught in most non-English speaking schools as a second language [much like Americans can learn Spanish, French, ect in school]
But, yeah, I like meeting\being around people from other areas.

Yeah, kage is in Japan. I think fabs is too. As far as I know I'm the only admin in America . If you want to learn more about how the YPN came around goto www.youngprogrammers.net/history.html. It's pretty darn funny .

Oh, and i have another question that popped up in my mind cause of readin that massive thingy... specifically oriented to KaGeZ or Fabs or anyone living in Japan... here at troy high school (which is the study-proven best high school on the west coast of the US), we pretty much worship the japanese and their methods of school and whatnot. If everything over there is oriented towards education (forgive me if i'm wrong even on that), then do the girls like the smart guys rather than the so-called "jocks"... (cause at troy, the smart guys often get alot of attention - look at me, i'm even consider my self a nerd, yet i have a blossoming relationship with the coolest most beautiful girl in the world )... Just wondering
