Oh my God! Miguel, I can't believe that you have included the Azores as a "Portuguese-speaking region", not believing that Acoreanos, who are the vast...
I have to agree with Miguel. Azores are a Portuguese speaking region. It's official name is "Regiao autonima dos Acores", I stress the "regiao" = region. ...
sonia.... there was no intent of suggesting that acorianos are "less-than-portuguese", as i'm sure you can imagine, given that some people refer to themselves...
I hope, for the sake of humanity, that this is not a real argument, because if it is, then I fear the Four Horsemen are mounting up right now...and why wasn't...
Hi Miguel, There is so much that I want to respond to, but I am at work and don't have time to give as extensive an answer as I would like to. But I have time...

The real shame in this is that we're losing sight of what's most important here - the excellent scholarship program offered by the UTPA. Nobody has commented...
Kevin: Exactly!! That's the real spirit, we should all be aiming for! Let's focus on the Unity and "viva a differencia" between the homeland and the islands. ...
