We are a very large country and occupy nearly the entire continent... so, mathematically, there are going to be plenty of uneducated dinks like this - even if they only occupy a small percentage of our population. That is how the Jerry Springer TV Show finds so many guests and why even Nascar racing and "Professional Wrestling" can be financially viable. But please don't think that the rest of the USA can in any way be represented by him.

The empeg was developed, designed, is supported and was built (at least the early ones) in the UK, so I can see how that would sting.

The slight irony is that many of us owners who have had an empeg for over a year, had to pay import taxes to get them imported to the US from the UK.

Congrats on your new toy!
