“Are there any high school teachers out there who would be interested in organising a cultural exchange to southwestern Quebec? It would be cool if we could host some students from the States and then visit. It would be some time in the autumn.”

“gremlin, our Wisconsin Technical College System has some sort of exchange program at some stage of development with Quebec's technical education system. Our president was in Quebec last year, I believe, on one of the initial visits to start/explore the process. If I hear more, I'll let you know.”

“Hi,

My name is Tarp Rat...

I have been on this board since it began... I started many a thread and helped many people with choosing the right gear (TNF). And I left the board in 2001 because many of the threads became racist after 9-11 and I felt that I no longer wanted to associate with these people. I recently came back and started to voice my opinions about the current crisis in Iraq. I know many people disagree with me, and that's fine! However, I should be allowed to state my views just as everyone else. I was recently banned from the board, my IP disabled. I was told this was because of my off-topic posting, but this is a false claim because the threads I was posting to were completely off topic and unrelated to backpacking in the first place. I just wanted to say that this is unfair. Have a nice day… and let the games begin!
