Sure, we all know that in the USA, most of Europe, China (mining anyway), Argentina, etc. that BTC use appears to be growing fast.

I am just back from India and Nepal, where I saw ZERO about BTC adoption, only ONE (USA) person in our tour group had even heard about Bitcoin, he had read about it, never used it.  bitcointalk member bryant.coleman wrote that tekkies in India ARE looking at and beginning to use Bitcoin.

Well, what other countries are beginning to see BTC use take off?

You cant expect to stumble upon irl (in real life) people that know about Bitcoin and let alone own somea nd use them, it's really really rare, even in developed countries in USA and Europe. I have never seen a person in real life that knew what Bitcoin was, which is actually good news for us because it shows how ahead of the pack we still are.
I can definitely attest to this.  I'm in the USA and I've met exactly two people who have used bitcoin, and both of them were for drugs.  I've met a handful of people who've heard of bitcoin, and as far as it being adopted...nope, not yet, not even close. 

You know, I would think India and some of the developing countries would have better adoption.  Immigrants sending funds back to their home countries and so forth.  Is that actually being done?  This is bitcoin's big utility, correct?  Small or big transfers of funds with very low fees.  I'd like to know if that's a reality.
