I think that your post quite solidly shows that "wah wah" is not limited to Americans and Germans. I would gather the posts on this topic to be about 1% of the comp.database.oracle stuff on my machine. I would also hazard a guess that 25% of the posts here have NO relevance to you and another 25% have very little releavance to your work. Your use of the term "cluttering" is clearly a smokescreen for your true desires to see a continued green light into America for third world dudes like yourself.

Yes, you third world Asian countries really take in lots of immigrants. And
of course, WASP programmers are beating the door down trying to get in.
And certainly, I am very saddened to hear that I can't go over to Malaysia
and work for you, as a smug cry baby Malaysian has always been my ideal boss.
But you were right about the decline and fall of America.
