Hmmmmm.................

This is an observation consistent with many that I read from people in other countries. I've encountered it in my travels abroad as well, though that was many years ago.

It always gives me pause to realize that significant amounts of people outside the United States think we're all nuts. I don't believe it's entirely true that we are, but it is interesting and disheartening nonetheless.

The way we see ourselves and the way we are seen is, increasingly, becoming two entirely different things.

Personally, I think this is bad.
