Termyt

Galant

Why am I still not on the list? Was I disqualified somehow? Do you not like me? :(

Here's my fact...since...I don't know...I'm going to assume that it was a mistake...and that I'm still in...I hope...

Madagascar became a French colony in 1896, but regained its independence in 1960.

It's okay, we're none of us perfect. Just thought I'd give you a bit of a hard time. ^^

The population is 18,040,341. (At least that was the July 2005 estimate.)

And another fact for good measure (same source):

The religions on Madagascar are: indigenous beliefs 52%, Christian 41%, Muslim 7%

What!? You dare insult my magnificent name!!!!???? ;)

Anyway, I don't see your name on the list anyway Locke. How would you give your position to me if you don't have one?
If he was on does this mean I get to respawn after I fell in battle? ;)

Just in under the wire -

Madagascar has a rather pathetic literacy rate of 68.9%, perhaps indicative of this generation's struggle for political equity.

You should check to see who's responded! Don't give up. I think Kura hasn't crossed the line yet, either.

Madagascar lies in the Indian Ocean off the southeast coast of Africa opposite Mozambique. The world's fourth-largest island, it is twice the size of Arizona. The country's low-lying coastal area gives way to a central plateau. The once densely wooded interior has largely been cut down.

Unless I'm incorrect again, Kuro Ookami is eliminated. Good showing, though, reaching this far.

*comes into the checkpoint too late* I'm the last one to reach this checkpoint? Oh well. *joins Syoran to cheer for the other racers.* Keep on going racers. You can do it! :thumb:
Absence is to love as wind is to a flame. It extinguishes the little, it ignites the great.

Life is a test. It is only a test. Had this been real life you would have have been instructed where to go and what to do.

When i argue with reality I lose.....But only 100% of the time.

Once you've decided on a course of action, only you can finish it. As long as you remember that, there's nothing you can't accomplish.
