<p>haha, theoneo your punjabi, i should have guessed</p>

<p>I myself am from the southern part of india, and i speak a dialect from the area</p>

<p>I think its safe to say that so far the indians seem to be the most "dominant" asian group</p>

<p>I'm punjabi also...what's up with all the Indian people, didn't think there were so many on the forum. Or maybe Indians just want to let others know where its at.</p>
