Of course. Nobody has denied anyone the right to research their family history or to be proud of one's heritage. That doesn't change the fact that most people couldn't care less where their ancestors came from; especially if that was several generations ago. I've been into genealogy for a very long time, Bieganski, and I know how people react to questions about heritage. You almost always get a big yawn and an empty stare. If you are different - good for you.

Stating facts like the height of a mountain is nationalistic? I see... :)
