Joining in the meme inspired by EXMI and tracked by Spacebook - 10 reasons I love being South African, and I love this country:

1. Our high interest rate – look what a too low rate did to the US world markets
2. Our constitution. We’re not the most tolerant people at times, but we seem to be more open-minded and tolerant than most
3. We are willing to stand up for what is right technically
4. Durban weather (an average of 320 days of sunshine a year *), our beaches and the Drakensberg
5. Summer in Capetown (February in particular)
6. We never lose our sense of humour :-)
7. There are always positive people out there, willing to share their viewpoints to try and dispel some of the unnecessary doom and gloom
8. Braai time – 24th September (next Wednesday) is braaiday, Like we need an excuse.
9. We have an industrious web2.0 group, and we have a habit of rapidly adopting new technology appropriately, despite our 3rd world limitations often getting in the way.
10. If there ever is a global nuclear war, we’re in an excellent global position to survive – or at least be the last to go
