[1a] Mexico is part of North America so that doesn't count as outside.
no. only citizens of the united states and canada consider mexico to
be part of north america. mexicans consider north america to begin at
the rio bravo where the united states start. they consider mexico to
be either part of mesoamerica or simply to be mexico. mexicans refer
to americans and canadians as 'norteamericanos' explicitly identifying
it as a difference.
Todd - you are wrong - from formal point of view - if I have US visa -
now I have no need to get Mexican visa - it is just for example as we
see the situation from outside world - sorry
Dima
the 'NAFTA' (north american free trade agreement) in english is simply
the 'Tratado de Libre Commercio' (Free Trade Agreement) in spanish.
this is not to say that mexico can't be more included in nanog
activities in the future, but simply to point out this difference in
perception.
please resume all other quibbling. :-)
