Clocker-
You weren't kidding about your newfound uploading skills, were you?
The av is cool, too-I recommend a synthetic lubricant and a magnetic drain plug, although I'm sure the machine work on those gears is so precise you won't suffer any chip contamination.

its this kind of comment that explains why americans are not well liked -- obliviousness. its not that europeans or others around the world have just begun to resent americans; the invasion of iraq was just another, particularly obvious example of why such resentment exists. the basic problem with the american public is that they believe their government's propaganda. living in a world/super/hyper power is typically so.Originally posted by ShockAndAwe^i^@16 May 2003 - 22:38
I think there is such an anti American spirit in the Europe today that you are in the minority.
More and more americans are feeling the way I do.
I am 40 years old and I never in my wildest dreams did I think that Americans would be so dispised in Europe in my lifetime.

i guess i should read through the whole thread before posting. sorry. but still, i'm firmly of the belief that the average american is far less informed of world politics than others in the West, and its no coincidence. this is not a personal attack on individual americans...its a systemic thang.

If it's not a coincidence then what is it?
You may not approve of the filters through which our information is poured ( nor may I), but we are saturated with information over here.

clocker, i can't tell if you're disagreeing with my point or not, but i agree that americans are saturated with filtered information. what i'm saying is that the filtering is far beyond that of other democracies, so much so that it becomes a difference of kind, not degree. i didn't think there was anything all that spectacular about the 'not a coincident' observation...
