This would have to be a one to one interview and could be online via e-mail, pm, instant message, or even phone call (international included). I would need your full name so if you aren't comfortable with then nevermind. The paper is due Januaray 17th so I need to finish the interview within a week, so that would be by the 12th or 13th at the latest.
To define other culture it would have to be different enough from pacific northwest US to count as another culture. Southern works, New England maybe, English, Scottish, German, Australian, Tasmanian, Japanese, whatever.

I'm in PA, but I'm Indian, so I could give perspective on Asian culture.

I already sent a PM to Prester John, but it is good to know there are backups in case interviewing John doesn't work out.

A while back Graham mentioned using Skype to make longdistance calls cheaply.Yahoo was also mentioned.One of these may save you some cash when doing an interview,a big plus to any student.
