That is a great statement! Only in America do you get the freedom to
do something like this and to publicly say such a statement and not be
imprisoned or killed.

With my flame proof overalls on - you REALLY need to get out more - in the
vast majority of the world you can hold up signs calling your goverment
whatever you want - that's not to say that there aren't countries with zero
tolerance of dissent, and a fair few places, US and UK among them, where the
wrong sign at the wrong time can get you a sore head from a police
truncheon.

OK Andy... Maybe not only in America. I exagerated a little. Can you
blame me? I was full of emotions. I was watching the thing on
Discovery for the whole hour and had to go (number one), but I held it
until it was finished. Then later on, it was shown again and I saw it
again in its entirety without getting up.
