This week, Simon says Asians are the insects of the human race. While a lot of people may feel being called an insect is an insult, it may very well be a insult to insects to feel that way! Hey, don't look at me, it was Simon!
ROFL!!! Koreans have to be the fiercest, most dedicated recyclers in the world! I remember being nearly scared out of my knickers by a Korean apartment-house security guard roaring at me about recycling, the first year I was here. I had no idea what he was saying, but I gathered that my trash was unacceptable. :-D
I grew up in Chinatown in NYC so I've seen old Chinese ladies collecting recycling all my life. It made me wonder how the practice became so wide spread. Maybe there's a Chinese lady recyclers group on Facebook.
Angel - not sure what you mean by the Native American & Asian link belief. Can you clarify?

There is a fairly accepted theory that Native Americans migrated here from Asia through various means.
