Ok sailor, we do know we are on the Internet, do you ?
Such a message might get you some flames....from France or Quebec.

Basically I agree with you but maybe some sites just WANT to be local
for very good marketing or business or even political reasons, or
maybe their TARGET population is only Dutch or French.
Their choice.
Maybe it is not a "profesional horor" atfer all....
