8. You won't defend your assertion?

Having spent a small bit of time since seeing your response watching some crowd coverage from BBC, MSNBC, NBC, ABC, CBS, and now CNN, I stand by my point. The Brits overwhelmingly are not slovenly nor overly casually dressed. I find that a level of respect-- for any event-- that is no longer--or exceedingly rarely--seen in the US. And to the point, I have YET to see a single ball cap. Warm hats in Scotland, yes, but not casual sports caps. On the occasion that I've seen an American tourist interviewed, they too were neatly and far less casually dressed for typical tourists, so perhaps our British counterparts are having a little positive influence on us in that respect as well.
