Not the whole of ShriLanka or Thailand is bad, hey we might even have some users from those countries and I bet you they don't like that stuff happening either.

Well, that's certainly true. It's funny, but I always hear about Amsterdam in a negative way, too. It's more or less "sex and dope" city or some such nonsense, to hear about it. I've very sadly never been out of the country, so I don't have any real life experience to counterbalance these generalizations. I have similar views of places like Cancun. Yes, I realize that not everyone that goes there is a stupid drunk teenager saying things like, "Show us your ***, *****, woooooooo!!!" kinda crap, yet that's the image that gets passed down.

That's why I'd really like to ask Clarke and Peddle what they like about the country. Something tells me that they WOULDN'T say "sex with boys." If we could hear more about the positives, maybe this negative stuff would go away.
