<div> </div><div>FYI Jose fair few of us are from what you'd call a "third world" or "developing" country. So when a smiley like ":)" is used next to the term it's because it's usually intended as a joke, not as a serious insult/racism. </div>

</div>I would be glad if this happened, we could get a lot more done if<br>
people didn't try to divide us with first vs third world rhetoric.<br>
<br>

You and others should recognise however that Suresh is the least of<br>
