'WE' are not generalising about Americans. Include me out.
One fact that I've gleaned in the last couple of years is that Americans have more varieties than Heinz, and are just folks, like Aussies, Poms, Japanese, Icelanders, and all the rest of us.

How the Hell could anyone generalise in a group that includes Blind Drunk in Blind River and ,say Little Hawk or Uncle Dave O?
