1) Yes we do - Pubic is from Christchurch in the South Island and is a regular - over 3,000 posts and he's been around almost as long as me. He's quite often in the D&ST section. He's the guy with the NZ flag as an avatar. TuataraDude also pops in from time to time and he's a Kiwi. I can't recall anyone else, I think there was someone a while ago.1927 wrote:
Ty - Before you close I have a question or 2 for you.
1. Do we have any other New Zeleander's here?
2. Why is New Zeland, called 'New', and not just Zeland?
2) New Zealand is called New Zealand because a dutchman by the name of Abel Tasman discovered it and he was from Zeeland, a province of the Neatherlands. Technically that means we should be called "New Zeeland" because "Zealand" is a place in Denmark. No-one really cares though aside from one douchebag who's made it his life work to get place names officially changed to their "correct" names. He deserves a bullet.
- Actually further research has shown that he wasn't from Zeeland itself. Read what DonFck wrote.
