| no worries, you're allowed. :-) btw I think "overwhelming" is in the rear view mirror and fading. Currently under 60%, with the majority projected to change in 2045 which is not that far away. |

| It can't come soon enough! (and i'll bet if the census were complete it might be here). But caucasian will still be, and i'm sure at least for the rest of our lifetimes, the largest racial group in America, even if the combining of the numbers of all non-white peoples overtake as the combined majority. | |

| definitely plus we have non-white and white hispanics factoring in so we have people identifying as POC who are caucasian. What really can't come soon enough (but won't during our lifetimes) is when we (collectively) only notice the way we notice redheads and blonds. | |

| Ha, no no, my twitter name is not and has nothing to do with my profile name here. I couldn't possibly be so obvious, otherwise you'd know I'm actually Dave Malloy. | |

| World Association of Zoos and Aquariums? Actually one of my nephews (who is Latino -- Mexican-American) goes by the nickname "Chaz" rather than "Chuck" or "Charlie". Just sayin'. |

| Not quite, lol. But I've always wondered if one were to substitute "Queenie" from "Chaz" if that led somewhere. (Obvious hint - it's a lyric in TWO shows.) | |

| Chazwaza is actually a reference from The Simpsons. It's what an Australian guy says he'd call a bullfrog. Marge: We have them in America, they're called bullfrogs. Aussie: What?! That's an odd name. I'd have called them chazwazas. However the internet (and maybe the simpsons) seems to favor a zz spelling of it. |

| Ha! Well, I'm glad I know the real reference now. ;-) Of course, why you'd want to be called a bullfrog I don't know, lol. ;-) It's funny, though - because all these years I've been thinking "waza" as in "was a (blond)." Maybe I'm TOO much of a musical theatre geek? ;-) |

| Nothing makes me happier than the assumption that my profile name is a reference to LaChiusa's masterpiece. But alas, the name does not give any clues to my hair color. | |
