Very clear trend here, and every time I read '$age years old $color american' I feel the urge to challenge the use of skin color as a significant defining element of personnality. To us Europeans, this is very alien. While I'm at it : 25 years old, European citizen of French nationality, married, telecom and Internet strategy consultant and project manager, graduate degree, spends too much time toying with computers and networks, moderate centrist. Interests: obsessing about technological artefacts, playing strategy games against friends, operational art and tactics, adventure travel (41 countries so far including 17 african countries), history, sociology and geopolitics, too much reading (both web and dead tree), martial arts, the great outdoors (walking, biking, rollerblading)...
