Yes, thank you. I was afraid for a second that I was just insensitive since the whole "those people" thing went totally unnoticed by me until the present discussion. Is it really a positive sensibility or have we become of world of word-wusses?
There are only three kinds of people in the world: those who can count and those who can't.

Besides, how do you know the CEO's at .. uh, Sharp, Casio, Sony, Nintendo and some more would never refer to Westerns as "those people" with a bit of hatred in their voice? I'm sure after Nintendo failed to make a deal with Atari regarding the Famicom, some people in Japan would say one or another thing about "those Americans", not to forget "those Coleco people" who broke an agreement. Would it mean Nintendo executives were racists if they expressed such feelings?
