Gotta say... when I first went to the US for a while - it hit ya in the face! :-) It was unbelievable that so many people were so damned ignorant of anything outside their own state. It was... more than just embarassing.
Btw... as an "education" on eg cellphones. There are far more advanced cell phone operations in the UK/Europe than in the US. I remember I tried to buy some that had some chance of working in the US - hell.. even the "towers" did not cover any reasonable range. Tho, think it "may" have improved slightly since then.
The US people? I like em. Not that they are any different to other places - all human :-) The hospitality of some of these folks is notable!
If I was to take the very silly "superior" US mouths (read fucking ignorant), on GFY to be any "sampling" of the US people - I'd think they were all just fresh out of a failed term of mental rehabilition. But fortunately, I know better and have many good US friends who actually are "balanced" and clearly with a higher intellect than some of the shit on GFY :-)
The US as a country? Nice country - it's gotta be - it covers enough land area.
Generally? I like the US and it's people - ya can't not like them.
By far, my "grouse" would be the US govt - or rather the US Admin - there are plenty good people in the US govt and doing a good job - tho they may never be thanked for it:-) The US Admin.... dunno what to say (forgetting any politics) - it just stinks like no admin of any other democratic country on the planet. I can't see this Admin is of the slighest value to the US people - tho they sure pay the bills.
Best thing to do with the Admin is ignore it and anything they say/claim - the cancer might just heal itself - it sure as hell is not a credible admin that can claim to represent the US people. (btw.. this is above politics - it's about some truth, honesty and credibility)
I got no problems with the US (dammit, or any other country) - other than the ... well.. really silly "management". :-)

about cell phones, there are still several places even in NY where it's hard to get a signal ...
Europe, china and japan are much more advanced for cell phones ... ppl barely use sms over there still ...
