I think it would be a really interesting research project to find out why 
people forget to say where they are. This has been a constant refrain on the 
list for years and years. Where are you? There has to be a reason behind this. 

I've seen forming group websites that I couldn't figure out what _country_ they 
were in. They had no location clues at all. And these were forming communities 
trying to attract people. 

From time to time I consider designing websites for new communities that 
include all the basic information about cohousing and their own information -- 
something that can last them until move-in. The number one reason I think they 
need this is that they don't include basic info like address and contact 
information.
