Well, I have travelled in the U.S., too. After several dozen trips to the U.S.,

culture. I am not a U.S. resident nor a U.S. citizen, however I much prefer
to travel in the U.S., compared to the continent of Europe where the common
attitude is that "WE are the centre of the cultural universe
and the rest of the world are wannabes or boors". :Hell will freeze over
before I travel to the continent of decay, Europe.

Well, I'm pretty sure that at least 99% of us here in the US would rather have
Frank visit than you.

I'm not quite sure if that was a compliment or not! Afterall, all is
relative, isn't it? :-) I.e. something like "I would rather have a
broken leg than a missing eye!". :-)
