Your latest response is just one example.  You call me childish names
because you can't debate actual topics.  Frankly there's no need to
debate, just share your own experience with us rather than deny,
deflect and demean.  I guarantee if you resort to just sticking to your
own experience, you will find others treat you differently too.

Let's try a different topic.  When I was in the US Air Force, I was
stationed at Loring AFB in Limestone, ME.  That was something like 5
miles from Canada, and to someone from Virginia like me, it was a
frozen hell hole.  Yet I found a way to appreciate the culture up there
by becoming interested in the national sports of Canada, ice hockey and
curling.  Other than being a home town fan of the Washington Capitals,
I mostly followed the Canadian teams like the Montreal Canadiens and
Toronto Maple Leafs.  Back in those days the Great One Wayne Gretzky
was still playing for the Edmonton Oilers while they were dominating
the sport.  My two favorite players were Patrick Roy and Wayne Gretzky.
But Gretzky eventually left Canada and moved to Los Angeles, becoming a
US citizen.  Even Roy left for America too.  Then most other Canadian
teams left and moved to America.  And now a Russian is about to
overtake the Canadian Great One in career goals.  Personally I'm
saddened by the downfall of Canadian ice hockey.  I don't even know
when they last won a Stanley Cup.  It's a shame how their government
and players have abandoned the national sport of Canada.

Now, what is your opinion on that subject?
