The people listed in the Year 2000 Who's Who of Foreigners are completely fictional, as are any and all nations which may be referenced herein. Here and there in the listing, readers may encounter names or descriptions which remind them of living foreigners. Such instances should be regarded as purely coincidental and should not be interpreted as a comment on, or criticism of, the living foreigner to which the reader's imagination has created a fanciful connection. Okay?
