@zhjuan,
I'm of irish descent. My life in New Mexico is relatively new, and where I last lived is very much more like Ireland than here. In fact, an Irish shop did quite a good business, and the clothing they sold fit with our area - but was expensive. I am speaking of a northern california coast by Humboldt Bay.
I would be very interested in your impressions of Ireland and I would bet many other a2kers would be interested.
I should tell you of two irish a2k posters - Lmur, a gentleman, and Heeven, a wonderfully outspoken lady who is from Ireland but lives in Massachusetts. Setanta, a long time poster here who knows a lot about history, lived in Ireland for a while. So did or does Kara, but she doesn't post very often. When she does, she is well worth listening to.
