Hey! I was looking at a website the other day and stumbled upon the "Comma Gets A Cure" passage and I thought it'd be fun to know where you think I come from! So, click on the link below and let me know!!!

I get a blank page from that link. But looking at your profile, I'd guess you're from Canada.

PS: I note that removing the 's' from 'https' allows a connection. I don't know - Taiwan?

Thanks. I have removed it.

(Later) It still didn't work. Then I put it back in and it worked. I don't understand this, but at least we can hear the recording now.

Sorry for the recording issue and thanks for resolving it! I'm not Taiwan, by the way!

Finland? I don't know, I can't really place your accent. I'd guess that you're from a European country. I'm assuming you're lying about being from Canada.

Well, he's within 5,000 miles of it. ;-)

Please correct your profile information, George.

At times you sound as if you were from one place, and a second later, I think, "no no no..."
So, my guess is that you are from Eastern Europe-maybe Lithuania?

1. I doubt you are a Native AmE Speaker!
2. I doubt your Current Location is Canada!
3. I know you are not from Boston!
4. Frankly, if you are going to try and deceive us with your profile, I don't really care where you come from!

Cheers,
A4
