David..ahem...have you ever thought of moving back to Europe (either as a family or individually)...? You'd find the French not that bad, and the only thing about the Germans now is that they're a bit boring...so Italians are corrupt...well someone has to be. We Irish are always too pissed (drunk - not pissed as in angry) to bother...the English are well they're the English...but ten again you might prefer Australia...what with the weather Kathryn and Al have...let's face it you've outgrown the USA...move on up...
