The Dutch have come up with an interesting screening process for prospective
immigrants, a 90 minute film.  If you can't handle seeing gay-men kissing or
topless sun-bathers, don't try to become Dutch.  Following the film there is
a 30 minute computerized exam about Dutch facts - although if you are coming
from America, New Zealand, Canada, Australia, Japan, or Switzerland, you
don't need to take the exam.
