Those are the active ones - then there's one "on leave" who lives in Switzerland, four alumni FPers who are also American and one "honorary" FPer who is British-born but has lived in North America her whole life. Plus at least 1/2 of the registered users are American.

I think one of those american alumni blotted her copy book, if last nights discussion is anything to go by.

I wondered where she'd gone after leaving booman.
