The Yanks!

Why oh why, do the Americans have to try and change the world?

Please don't get me wrong!

I've been to the States many times, and love them.

However, why can't they conform to things that have been established in the world for centuries, instead of trying to change things to their way of thinking, as this can cause so much confusion.

An American gallon is only 7 pints compared to our 8.

They also bastardise the English language.

They use a different date system to the rest of the world too!

We all know about the tragic attack on the Twin Towers, and they refer to it as 9/11.

However, to you and I and the rest of the world, 9/11 is the 9th of November, when in fact it occured on the 11th of September!

Also, I'm sure I read an article a while ago, that they wanted to change the worlds time zones to fit in with theirs!

What is wrong with them?

Why can't they conform?

Is it that important to them?

Your conventional Worm..............
