Yes, I heard that one in a different newsgroup. Manchester is a close second,
if I recall correctly. Thank goodness for the dignity.
Can you imagine the outrage that such cultural pattern exposure might beg for
in the East? Google Trends can be used to support racism, prejudice,
military agendas, intelligence, etc. I wonder who's up for "democracy"... (I
will not check, I promise! It's too addictive once you get started,
exploring laterally and refining the query)
Best wishes,
Roy
