I am an American, living in Minnesota, that bops to other english-speaking countries on Yahoo! to get a better idea of what's really going on. I'm tired of the poor grammar and low manners of the American sites. Canada and the U.K. rock!

To those of you that don't get what he means
Why are the Americans on the British and Northern Irish Site?!
Which is what comes up on my computer, if I wanted to I could change it and go on one for Spanish Questions or French or American etc
Why are there so many Americans logging in to the British and N Irish site?

May I put one answerer straight. The concept of the internet was invented by Tim Berners-Lee, a Brit who then proceeded to give to all of us for free,
So far as freedom is concerned I don't think anyone invented that except perhaps for the first child who decided to leave home.

Is it of any great importants. There is nothing stopping one from the UK from visiting their side. Grief, it's a very sad world when one find that integration is an error, mistake, and all that other rot.

Because Americans invented Yahoo, and the internet, and we also invented freedom

Perhaps it's because this is actually an international site.
For example, I am in Spain.
