True. But they should be able to distinguish between American and Kiwi/Aussie. Sure, like you would be able to distinguish between Germans, Austrians, Swiss, Luxemburgians, Italians and between the Spanish and Portugese and between the different Scandinavian countries, Finland and Holland and ... We are regularly mistaken for Germans in Spain and I don't even speak German! -- Mike Reid "Art is the lie that reveals the truth" P.Picasso Wasdale-Lake district-Thames path-London "http://www.fellwalk.co.uk" -- you can email us@ this site Eat-walk-Spain "http://www.fell-walker.co.uk" -- dontuse@ all, it's a spamtrap |

WTF is with your brainless knee-jerk obsession with top-post 'correction' BTW...? I had to physically move your post below his (as both were pertinent to my follow-up) for it to make any sense. Look, I'm not interested in teaching _you_ how to post properly when you play on usenet. Don't take my word for it- read up on the subject- but you're not going to win many admirers for posting the wrong way up. perhaps hes Australian? -- Mike Reid "Art is the lie that reveals the truth" P.Picasso Wasdale-Lake district-Thames path-London "http://www.fellwalk.co.uk" -- you can email us@ this site Eat-walk-Spain "http://www.fell-walker.co.uk" -- dontuse@ all, it's a spamtrap |

No, Auusies are middle-posters: They resent (sp?) authority, but are nice blokes and sheilas, so bottom and top are off###out (got distracted by the 'sheilas' bit). |

They tend to use British words and phrases, and some that are exclusively Canadian (example: American "pacifier" = British "dummy" = Canadian "soother"). |
