I got snarky once on one of those 'race' > checkboxes. I checked 'other' and wrote Teutono-Celtic. That's pretty funny :) But it's also actually becoming a "problem" for the Census ppl because more ppl each census do not define themselves with the traditional single race identity... black, hispanic, caucasian, asian etc. I seem to recall there were more factors in that than just interracial marriage would account for. I'm waiting for the day when there are so many different ways to cover race (Asian-latino-caucasian-german-italian American or Tahitian-Mongolian-Sudanese American or whatever) that it becomes meaningless and they drop it from the items worthy of consideration. --- Rachel's Little NET2FIDO Gate v 0.9.9.8 Alpha* Origin: Rachel's Experimental Echo Gate (1:135/907.17) SEEN-BY: 633/267 270 @PATH: 135/907 123/500 106/2000 633/267 |
