Of course, much as in dentistry, the British health care system is

Just as Brits are *known* for their good teeth, so are they *known* for

British dentistry and medicine go hand in hand.

I will go further Ian. I will state here now and for posterity that
British Martian Lander Technology is held in as much esteem as Brit
advances in dentistry and health care!

Yes, there you have it- an admission: Brits are far, far, advanced in
dentistry, health care and Martian Lander technology.


Much as I dislike responding to a Troll (Wingardium Leviosa is possibly
the right thing to say!), but I suggest the our Peter Spammon looks at
the proportion of the US population that still have there own teeth at

You might then want to stop drinking so much Coca-Cola over in 'Murrican

I don't mind my crooked, but healthy teeth, even if I do go for a dental
check-up only every 6 months.

It does. Now go to that page and seach (Ctrl F) for:

"In many ways, England's victory set the stage for the American Revolution."

and give some to consideration to the fact that this little country (UK) has
probably been the most steadfast and dependable friend you Yanks have ever
had (or ever will have). The really good news is that this 'special
relationship' will be affected *not* one iota by all your pathetic attemps
to niggle a few Brits with silly little references to skirmishes that were
not much more than family squabbles (and which provided more long-term
employment than even your own SETI project of more recent years).....

Very good and almost correct. Corsica is bilingual - French (the official
