That's amazing!
Since my sons have grown up (well, almost) and are out on their own, I've discovered a whole new world. Due to the nature of my business, I was forced to learn to use a computer. Now, I can't imagine life without it...kind of like life without a microwave! Through my computer, Bleeping Computer, and the diversity of cultures represented here, I have the opportunity to virtually 'travel' anywhere. My point, I appreciate those of you who keep BC a great place to be. The atmosphere, and of course, the cumulative, technological genius found here, are what attracts so many and keeps us coming back.

I have a question about the "ocean" residents. Where exactly does one reside in the Pacific Ocean? Is it just a general term for those whose location is not listed?
Thanks.

Think you're about that tink.
Had a look in the atlas and was surprised at the number of tiny islands in the south Pacific Ocean! Edit; Meant to say " think you are right about that tink."

It just caught my eye and I figured I would ask.
There must be many places that are not listed here. Even Hawaii has more than just eight islands.
