Default OT how much USA peeps are different

I have subscribe to "rec.food.cooking", as I think several people who post
here are. It makes you realise what a difference there is between us and
them, foreign in all but language and that differs more as time passes by.
do other here agree, or am I wrong?

Sue has an English born relative that was in the USAF for many years, he
made his home in the States and married a local girl. When their son went to
school the parents were called in because the son was having difficulty with
spelling and grammar etc,. However, once the "English" teacher heard the
father speak she apologised for not realising the son was speaking and
writing English.
