Sveiks!
Yes.. Latvian, 1st generation Canadian born.
As you would know, the node address may have nothing to do with a place of
residence. With the adoption of using internet for connections these
days, users have greater freedom to align with any system they want.
It can be hard *not* to think of the nodelist as an address book anymore.
It's just a "phone" book in my mind.
BTW, the nodelist shows a your name/system simultaneously in Z1 and Z2.
Very cool! But how is that supposed to work? :/
