Not a huge surprise that our septic cousins want to reach for the buckets of sunshine, it fits their culture. After all, they get it rammed down their faces from infancy about them being the home of the brave and the land of the free. They just don't get it when they come accross someone unfortunate enough not to have been born in Uncle Sam's great land, and are even more baffled by the fact that, being such a great place an' all, someone is quite happy being a nationality other than their own. Because they would destroy a nation with "Son of Star Wars", that's how everyone else would try and take on the US..right? So, when Bin Liner has a couple of his clones fly into a building, pretty low tech solution for a high tech nation, they just can't get their heads round it. They are presented with a problem that requires a long term solution. Well, Americans can't wait more than a nano-second for something to happen witout their heads spinning off, so rather than do the job properly they just want to push a button, job done, and back in time for MTV and burgers.

Simple really.
