I noticed in the setup and options menu for my Playstation 2 that one has the option to change the region settings -- Does this mean that I can play a region 2, etc. DVD on my U.S. PS2?

No, your PS2 is a region 1 player. It will not play other regions. The menus are there for the parental controls for other languages(IIRC from previous discussions).

I don't know if this question has been definitively answered unless you actually tried and failed? I posed this question and no one with any region 2 or etc. disc's have said they switched the region and either did or failed to watch the disc.
