You're still convinced they're one porsen Charlotte? Well, my IP logs show that Penguinista is posting from Vienna, Virginia, USA, while Scary appears to be located somwewhere near Tadworth in Surrey, UK. You, on the other hand, are in Mannheim, Germany. Alternatively however, Penguinista's address seems to be in an AOL owned range of IPs, and AOL users connect through a proxy server, I believe, so geographical pin-pointing may not be reliable in this case. On the other hand, I have no idea what I'm talking about.But I haven't noticed Penguinista posting comments on Scaryduck's site, which is a litttle odd, and if he is based in the USA he has a highly unusual sleeping pattern. One fairly similar to Scaryduck, I might venture. Hmmm.

You really make it seem so easy with your prettneasion but I find this topic to be really something which I think I would never understand. It seems too complicated and very broad for me. I am looking forward for your next post, I will try to get the hang of it!
