Dave, I was following my curiosity about our members from other countries, so was looking in the MemberList. Imagine my surprise to find several of our US States and at least one Canadian province has moved!

Check out the list by countries for:
Venezuela
Puerto Rico
Algeria
Albania
Zimbabwe
Afghanistan
Andorra
American Samoa (Winter Springs, FL is THERE?)
Cape Verde
Bolivia
Aruba (Dover, Del is THERE?)
USA Minor Outlying Islands
S. Georgia & S. Sandwich Islands

The trouble is, there's nothing stopping folks from selecting their city and state and then, instead of picking the United States, they pick some other country.

The new location preferences tool helps that. When folks first signup and signin, they are asked where they are from. U.S. people only have to give their zipcode which automatically puts the US in their field for them. So, I think going forward this problem will not exist.

Current entries, however, will continue to be broken. I'll see what I can do to automatically fix those, though.

I just thought it was a quirk from the sign-up page, and even a bit funny!
