Quote - I know. I had an American gf a while ago and we spent some time in Dallas, then OK City.
Yes......I think that's the reason why some of the folks from the British Isles that I've known and worked with in the past didn't want to leave here after their contract time was up. They came to like the attention. Which is certainly understandable. I've known Scots, English, and Irish -- they all get pretty much the same reaction over here. It's usually a very positive one. There aren't many Americans who genuinely dislike the Brits. I've known one or two: but they are actually quite rare. Mostly, an Englishman in this country is an instant minor celebrity -- without even trying.
