The Cellar - An American Place?

I think you're both right.
The majority of posters are in the US, so it does seem like an american board in that it would not occur to us americans to specify that we are talking about american subjects when we do... while foreign content is usually noted as such.
But like flint mentioned, there is a disproportionate number of posters from philly, and being one of them myself, it doesn't occur to me to specify that I am talking about a local phenomenon when I am, I just assume that some will know what I'm talking about and others won't. Not a big deal either way.

I would love to see more non-americans (is that the pc term for ferriners?) join and post. Especially pics and videos...
