I am using my 50th post to announce my retirement.
I initially came on this board to complete a college assignment of joining a forum and discussing International Relations. (50 post requirement, I am kind of a slacker, so I met the requirements)
I chose this forum because I have been to Dubai many times, and it really taught me alot about Arabic culture, and the positive influences both east and west can have upon eachother.
We all sometimes 'flame' eachother, and will always find things to disagree. But the general thread of this forum is really a harmonious appreciation of others views.
We all joined this forum to understand more about the world around us, and I really feel like this place maximixes that opportunity, and reaches the goals of it users.
Thanks to everyone on this forum, I learned alot, and will continue to visit Dubai whenever I get the opportunity. In addition I will always treat my muslim brothers and sisters with the same grace and hospitality as they have treated me.
