While Steve's comments were obviously made tongue-in-cheek (i.e. jokingly...do you really think that he believes that Burmese Pythons come from Florida??), if you'll note in your own quoted article, the official name of the country is no longer Burma, it is Myanmar, or the Union of Myanmar, at least according to the ruling government. Therefore, technically, there IS no such place as Burma.

There was really no need to jump in with such rude comments....ignorance indeed.

Burma was administered as a province of British India until 1937 when it became a separate, self-governing colony. The country achieved independence from the United Kingdom on 4 January 1948, as the "Union of Burma". It became the "Socialist Republic of the Union of Burma" on 4 January 1974, before reverting to the "Union of Burma" on 23 September 1988. On 18 June 1989, the State Law and Order Restoration Council (SLORC) adopted the name "Union of Myanmar" for English transliteration. This controversial name change in English was not recognized by the opposition groups and many English-speaking nations.

That is very true....sometimes the written word isn't always read in the "tone" it was typed.

And being a newer member, you may not know Steve's silly sense of humor.

It was a joke due to the press that burms get from being in Florida and I was playing around because Burma is now Myanmar. Hence the comment about there even being a place called Burma.
I was also joking about the angolans being carpet/ball crosses planted by Australia.

Yes and no. I was going to expand on my conspiracy theory and forgot about the thread.
Not the first time I've done that and made nonsense posts.
