GG> Heck, most yanks think they already have WD.

  It's not World Dominance so much as a perception that they *are* the
world, and that what they want, the World must want. It's scary.

 GG> I made the mistake of telling the US Postywoman (who parks her
 GG> jeep several blocks away and then walks up and down the street
 GG> delivering mail) if she had any idea how mail is delivered in
 GG> Australia. Her answer? "Oh, I dunno on the back of Kangaroos
 GG> maybe?" 

 GG> When I told her about motorbike delivery and commented about
 GG> how efficient it is, I knew I'd blown it for her. Her whole
 GG> image of US World Domination was shattered and she never spoke
 GG> to me again.

  At a higher level, yank engineers and businessmen know that Asia is
kicking the shit out of them, but they have a hurt attitude to this,
as if it is beyond their understanding.
