I am, somehow, less interested in the weight and convolutions of Einstein's brain than in the near certainty that people of equal talent have lived and died in cotton fields and sweatshops.

Ok, I'll apply for a Green Card, then (will take a while, as sibling GCs take like forever). :)

We'll settle you in Lancaster County, PA.  You look exactly like all of the natives. :bowler:

Women want me. Men want to be with me.

I was actually able to find StatsCan demographic info for my neighbourhood (for 2006).  It lists 75% European ancestry, but 16% East Asian, and 7% South Asian.

Anecdotally I would have thought the East and South Asian umbers would be much higher than that.  It's a reasonably wealthy neighbofhood, but that has only attracted people from those communities.

I went to America once. But they sent me to Syria and I was tortured. :(

It seems there's a waiting period of ca. 12 years for siblings at the moment . . . :lol:

By that time I'm pushing 50, and my sister will be in her mid-60s.  :lol:

Yeah, it's a catch-22.  :(
