Australian Reaction

The headline reads: Cyclone Larry Lashes Northeast Australia, but what caught my eye is this section:

"Australians are very good at responding to these things because everybody pitches in without restraint," he told reporters.
I couldn't help but think about Generation E. Is Gen-E just an American thing?

Flame on.

P.S. My sincere best wishes and prayers to all affected by this cyclone. -- Blake

mind you, there was a fair bit of backlash to that peice.

But just goes to show that the perception at least of gen-e is kicking on down-under just fine.
