I know why ....

[Roy N.]

I believe I know why I have yet to meet any Canadian "Pro" members.

In a moment of weakness this evening, I clicked on the shiny star and proceeded to fill out the on-line form to upgrade to a "Pro" membership.

I entered my CC info and address, then clicked the "upgrade" button

... BP wandered off into a alley - ostensibly in deep thought - and, 30 seconds or so later, refused to upgrade me to a "Pro" member because it could not validate my "ZIP code".

Since I do not have a "ZIP code" it is quite understandable the BP-machine would be unable to verify it :-)

... so, @Brandon Turner & @Joshua Dorkin the moment's passed ... looks like I'm off the hook.

BTW: your zip/postal code field is too short and does not allow for the correct entry of a postal code. If your developer would like some help with internationalisation, s/he can drop me a note and I'll endeavour to assist.
