    Geo posters hailing from the UK, please remember Mat's heroism here in jumping into the fray and denouncing Americans as cavemen when someone dared to criticize your countryfolk. Please, let us have no more jibes about French surrenderism. Mat's bravery here should dispel that misconception once and for all!

    I'm not frothing in anger here. Honestly, your comment was funny.

    You did say that Americans live in caves, though. I don't think that you really literally believe that, but it's what you wrote. Own your words.

    DG, read the thread I pointed you to, that will avoid you unecessary comments

    I used to live in a cave, with an American, so I can confirm this is partly true.

    Weird, I lived in a cave with an American too. Matala, Greece, 1970s.

    Similar... Used to live in graduate halls up in York - rooming between a lovely American gal and a talkative Scots lass... Open door policies, both - BUT the New Yorker was noticeably louder

I have been reading this forum for 7 years since I've been in HK and the Brits and others love to take swipes at Americans. Brits you got your asses kicked over 200 years ago, time to move on.

    Haha I wasn't even alive 200 years ago..... So there!
