    Categorizing posters by nationality.

    As a collective of posters I find the Americans to be extremely patriotic and resistant to criticism of the USA. A large percentage of them seem to take things very seriously

    The English are the English. They are "nice". They are a bit "straight".

    The Canadians are pretty cool. More flexible generally than the English or Americans.They seem to take things less seriously.

    The Ozzies...well, what can I say. They are a nasty bunch with no respect for proper behaviour.The type of people who fart while sitting down at a formal dinner and speak the unspeakable.

    Just a generalized opinion.

    I find the CANADIANS to be the "coolest". Not dogmatic.Pretty open minded.Flexible. Reasonable.Not hung up on issues.

    YAY for the Canadians!!

    All I have to say about this is one thing. I deal with a client who is English but has been transplanted to here in the States. Whenever he comes to my office for a meeting the women go crazy over his accent. Gimme break! I'm surprised he doesn't ask for a martini, shaken not stirred. lol

    Why do American women go nuts over English/Irish or Scottish accents?

    Spanner,

    Are you referring to culture or language?

    I like every culture. I have only lived in Canada and the U.S. Both are great countries.

    As far as accents go, Americans seem to like the Canadian accent. Now, my accent is a cross between Canadian and whatever the Seattle area has.

    If you really want to hear a Canadian accent, get a Canuck to say, "out and about".

    It is no secret that I would prefer to live in America. Blame my father, he raised us to have a lot of respect for America, because without the U.S., Canada would not be the great country it is.

    Perhaps I am being too hard on Canada. Most of my adult life in Canada was a struggle with little reward, and the short time I lived in the States was little struggle and good reward.

    Plus, I like how Americans think and act. I fit right in. At least in Washington State.

    Few Canadian women really attract me. Actually, only one has in a long time. Alas, the interest was not returned...

    American women attract me, and I wont list the reasons here. Mind you, I am still as fussy as ever.

    Windrider is a hell of an act to follow, and losing her is my biggest regret in life. Very recently, I thought I had found someone who was as rare as Windrider, but that relationship proved to be unhealthy and died quickly.

    Skeptic!

    Have faith my friend! It will all work out in the end.

    As far as coolest.....hmmmmmmmm We do have Elvis and Las Vegas, but the Dutch have amsterdam and Viv is pretty hot. The aussies have all those topless beaches *drool*. The brits? Well the brits are the brits and we wouldnt be here without them and they do have some hot chicas around there. The kanucks have maple syrup, eskimo chicks, and CFL cheerleaders so their cool to.

    Its a tie. I like them all.

    Ok, tie breaker.....

    As the Beach Boys say, "I wish they all could be California, I wish they all could be California, I wish they all could be California Girls!"

    So the winner is California!!!
