Americans straying out of America need to adjust their world view.

Amen to that. I'm in Singapore today and while I'm used to having to
convert acres to hectares and pints to liters to be basically

lump of plastic nearly everywhere and residents of most other
countries can carry workable phones with them on their trips. Somehow
we gotta get with the system....
