And that goes pretty much for any nation. Some of course have to be
right, though, even if they don't know it! :-)

Thats true, though which other nations do it so routinely as the US ?

I cna recall a couple of years that a UN survey said that Canada was
the number one nation in the world to live in, most Canadian's
response
was closer to polite embarrassment than braddagio.

The Ozzies I know when told that Oz is the best to be, simply shrug
and say "We know that, mate. We just don't tell everyone else 'cause
we want to keep it for ourselves". :-)
