Pedantic much?  :-) :-)

In the spirit of being "pedantic" I will point out that I first used quotes around "American" to indicate it wasn't related to the entire continent of North American or South American.  And, incidentally, most folks know that Canadians, Mexicans, and people living in countries other than the USA don't commonly refer to themselves as Americans.
