The differences are definitely there, though the tendency is to assume we are all the same. I'd say it has to do with a subconscious mentality of living in a more heterogenous world and smaller space for a long time. Somehow they are theoretically more efficient and tolerant and yet at the same time more overprotective of their own identities. Forced to be more aware and get along and yet not happy about it all the time? But they know what war feels like on their own turf, unlike us, and I think that definitely changes things. The active religious element is lacking as an excuse for action also(ie. people believe in equality and volunteering without God telling them to). It's a different vibe for sure and it's interesting being over here.<br />AmmonThe Watkinshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15319754871085488408noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12182292.post-54410105381524219252011-10-24T12:05:09.992-07:002011-10-24T12:05:09.992-07:00Hey Ammon,

Is there much difference between the people? or has it become homogenous because of the TV shows? If you noticed differences what would you say they are?<br /> How goes the advance business planning? Your parents are getting very wet on the coast these days, so getting cold might be fairly normal. Not that those parts of Europe get very cold thanks to the ocean's presence.<br /> Here in Calgary, leaves have changed and mostly dropped. Getting into the 6-10 below zero pattern, they are calling for a cold one.<br /> Say Hi to your parents and give them a hug when yoou see them.<br /><br />Bear Hugs Always<br />The Last Man StandingThe Bearhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13255054803275729621noreply@blogger.com
