Did You Know Addresses Don’t Work the Same Way Everywhere?

It’s really cool to find out that I’ve been using a basic assumption that I didn’t even know was there.

There are some things that are so fundamental to the way that people where we grow up think that we don’t even realize that certain basic assumptions have been made.  It is not until we see for ourselves that people elsewhere do it differently, or hear about it, that we realize, “Oh wow, there is another way to do this!”

As they say, fish know nothing of water.

Take a look at this quick little gem.  I’ll bet you never realized that the way we think of addresses in the West isn’t the only logical way to do it!
