Seriously - I'm not foolish enough to think that Americans are not generally ignorant of other foreign matters, but I always have to chuckle when someone from another country is arrogant enough to assume they understand us so well that they can claim superiority.

]]> <![CDATA["Real" Star Trek Tricorder Invented]]> About 10 years ago there was a tricorder about the size of one of those briefcase, the metals ones, that some business men carry around, that could actually analyze water samples from a distance, among other things. Whatever happened to that?

Yea that's right we Canadians built the first WORKING tricorder. Another reason why us Canadians rock the box and rock it hard. Dont forget we Canadians also invented time zones, acrylics, basketball, as well as a slew of other things, lol and since we are smarter then Americans it only seems natural that we invent and built the first working tricorder as well.

Check out some other things Canadians invented at the website below.

Being arrogant Americans you probably had no idea Canadians invented these things and simply assumed American invented them. Since few Americans know anything about the planet Earth outside U.S.A's precious boarders, I am not surprised. Hey America, can you point to Estonia on the world map?? Yea..I thought so, you cant.

Dont forget Star Trek uses Kilometer in the TV show not miles. The Imperial system is wack and the Metric system is where its at. I guess Americans have not heard of the International System of Units. You think your so great you don't have to adopt the system.
