I'd go even further. I've only actually visited the US once, but everyone was great except for *one* unpleasant experience with staff at a New York railway station, and it's possible that person was just having a bad day. Of course, it's also possible that we caught a huge lot of really nasty people who just happened to be having a _good_ day when we were there, but I'll be charitable and assume they're genuinely nice people. :) Mind you, we spent most of our time in the southern states, where people are pretty amazingly hospitable and friendly as a rule. Actually, the hardest part of visiting the US was learning that before crossing the road, instead of looking right and then left, we have to look left and then right... ChrisA
