It's a common trope that Americans are parochial, and that they don't know where the South Africa and the Iraqi and such is - as such.
There is an amusing thread on the Warhammer forum that emphasizes this.
And I was reminded of this thread - in part because of the content - by a frankly bizarre interview with Jerry Parsley on Garagehammer. I have no problem with setting up an American version of the Warhammer Forum - if for no other reason that it might allow the Wathammer Forum to have more relevance to UK gaming - or the US Masters or whatever, but I couldn't help but laugh at the notion that Glasgow is somehow within easy reach of Brighton because England/Great Britain/the United Kingdom is smaller than Alabama or wherever. Or that the UK has a single wargaming culture in which everyone knows everyone else.
All that was missing was something about the Royal family being reptilians...
peace:)
