Fascinating... who'd have thought attitudes could be so different in two places with a common language?
Mind you, I suspect that my understanding of the US has been heavily coloured by the people who I've met over here and who are - by the sound of it - far from typical.
It's sad, really, to think that the outside world worries Americans. I'd always assumed that a lot of people just weren't interested.
