Who do so many Russians read Southwest Desert Blogger? Is there a Russian fascination with the Southwest Desert or something else?
As of the 2002 Russian Census over 142 million respondents claimed to be Russian citizens. Dual citizenship was claimed by about 44,000 respondents. Over a million respondents claimed to be foreign citizens and 400,000 claimed to be "stateless" persons.
Of a recorded resident population of over 145 million, there are nearly 10 million more women than men. Seventy-three percent of the population is urban. So, who is on the internet and why?
There are nearly 7 million English speakers in Russia. They may also read and write English, but the level of competence is unknown. Children are presumed to speak a language if their parents speak it, so that 7 million likely includes some kids. Incidentally, 98.3 percent of Russian citizens claim to be competent in Russian.
The most recent Census in the United States of America was the 2010 Census. The 2010 Census was our twenty-third US Census. As mandated in our Constitution, we conduct a Census every 10 years. The first US Census was in 1790.
As of National Census Day, April 1, 2010 (no joke), the population of the US was counted as 308,745,538. The most populous state is California. The city with the greatest population is New York City.
So why all the Southwest Desert Blogger readers from Russia? Let me know. Is it your interest in my Omega vertical VRT 350 juicer foibles? (see previous blogs) Is it a fascination with the wild west? Is this blog featured on some site you frequent? Where did you discover Southwest Desert Blogger?
(http://yandex.ru/yandsearch?text=southwestdesertblogger.blogspot.com , or domar.ru ) Are you messing with the system? Trying to figure out whether my cookies are edible or not? Trying to figure out whether driving out here is a hard drive? Do we have to have a medical degree to have an operating system? Are we wired or wireless? Do I have a mouse or a rat's nest? Do we speak Russian? Da? Niet? You've got to figure we habla (hablamos) some Espanol because we are in the Southwest Desert.
Looking for answers without any clues,
Southwest Desert Blogger
