Warning! You are reading an international blog...

fpi_woman.jpg ... or, wait. It is a blog on a US server, so it's a domestic blog. No, no, it deals with international issues, so it's an international blog. Furthermore, two of the contributors are residing outside the US, and one of them even is of foreign nationality! And they log in from Romania! You know, the country with no CIA prisons!

That's not spying! That's just protecting you!

If you got a little confused on the definition of domestic versus international, just read the very informative news release of the White House:

# Domestic Calls are calls inside the United States. International Calls are calls either to or from the United States.
# Domestic Flights are flights from one American city to another. International Flights are flights to or from the United States.
# Domestic Mail consists of letters and packages sent within the United States. International Mail consists of letters and packages sent to or from the United States.
# Domestic Commerce involves business within the United States. International Commerce involves business between the United States and other countries.


All clear now? If your reading comprehension isn't quite up there, you may want to watch this little instructional video which explains the White House release in easily understandable words for you. With graphics!

Don't tell me I didn't warn you. It's your own damn fault if you are reading this.

[You have to open the video in Internet Explorer, I'm afraid. Microsoft is evil.]
