Belgium does exist dude! The things my fellow-belgian a bit up here said wer all true! U should really do an effort and come and see it! Belgians profiled themselves from the time of the Romans..." the Bravest off Gallians " they say...and keeped doing that! It has a lot a good sides and some few lesser...but its always nice to have some minimum quality in life! A lot off country's dont even have that....! I know people that lived while the car was inventioned....and now there somewhere in Virtual reality? Hahahahahaha What u see is what u get dude, and thats sadly in every country thesame thing....included a pic off our own Belgian superhero....but u all know him, unless this is all not real?

Yeah dude, i had to make my suit a bit different, i turned the "S" incase the American Superman would prosecute me! hahahaha

xoxoxoBruce 05-30-2004 07:42 AM

OK. I thought maybe it was a Z. You folks in the low countries seem to use that a lot. I hope you're using your super powers for truth, justice and the European way.:haha:

York 05-30-2004 09:13 AM

Pi 05-30-2004 03:45 PM

ja maar enkel de Vlams en niet de Waals ;)

wolf 05-30-2004 04:31 PM

Either something is wrong with Babelfish, or you freakin' Beligies just don't make no damn sense.

"yes but only the Vlams and not Walloon"

xoxoxoBruce 05-30-2004 06:09 PM

I think they speak several dialects besides "Dutch".;)

guustflaterke 05-30-2004 07:01 PM

Dutch is indeed very general. But I think Vlams was a typing error. It is suposed to be Vlaams. Vlaams in English is Flemish. Flemish is a sort of Dutch. But Dutch is spoken in the Netherlands and Flemisch in the Flemish part of Belgium. It is very sensitive to us Flemish people. :rolleyes:
Walloon is a sort of French. But French is spoken in France and Walloon in the Walloon part of Belgium. It's the same problem as above.
We live all in the same country, but it is very difficult for most people to accept the other language. I live near the border of the 2 linguistic zones, and I speak quite a bit French too. But I hate it when Walloon people don't speak a word Flemish. :angry:
If this wasn't enough, we have also a small part where the people speak German. At the end of one off the world wars, Germany had to give up a piece to Belgium, so actualy, there are 3 different languages spoken in our country and still it is sooooo small.
:p
So far the lesson for today. Tomorrow we have our economic system :D

PS: I'm still waiting for an answer of Spivey, he has been very quietly since we entered the conversation.

xoxoxoBruce 05-30-2004 08:31 PM

Spivey probably thinks your agents for the conspiracy.:worried:
I should think the Netherlands would have language problems, considering how many countries they started out as.

Pi 05-31-2004 10:36 AM

True it was a typing error. But don't tell me all the time I'm Belgian!!! That's an insult! ;)
And btw when guustflaterke tries to explain thei political system don't listen to him, it's too difficult to understand.
And what I wanted to say is that only the flemish-speaking part of Belgium uses the Z and not the fench-speaking part.

That's true.

True again. I won't say you're a Belgian, but you're well informed. I'm glad to notice we aren't that unknown.

xoxoxoBruce 05-31-2004 12:03 PM

I have noticed that whether it be Belgium, Luxemburg or the Netherlands, you all seem to be quite civilized.:beer:
