Although it's quite irrelevant to C and such, I would also point out that
France is technically a North American country:  the islands of St. Pierre
and Miquelon (sp?) in the Gulf of St. Lawrence are part of France.  Not
just territories or possessions, mind you, they are provinces (districts?
whatever...) of France.  For example, they are an electoral district in
French elections, electing one representative to the legislature.

I believe they normally have pound sign where we have number sign (#).
This is actually fairly harmless.
