Oh feel free to do so, by all means !
The more you spread it around the more famous it will become and the more people will choose to give me money.

So do I. But only for my favorite authors/books.

So do I, when I go to the cinema or the theater, I pay for the service. And if I ever copy a file of the Internet, I certainly pay for that service - to the one who's doing the service - the electrical company.

Omg, who ever said you were a terrible person ? I never called anyone on this forum a terrible person (though some have unjustly called me a thief), you can pay for whatever you will and not be a terrible person !

Nope, actually know a couple of them personally and lots more over the web, all are decent people as far as I know.
And why would I learn about the Americans from local media when your own media are the most telling. And your actions and behaviour.
And that wasn't a stereotype, that about the Americans having an extremely capitalist mentality on average compared to the rest of the world is a fact (look at the US health service or education in comparison to the rest of the world) and the reason for that is it's history like I said. Now the Americans being fat or stupid - that is a stereotype.

LOL
Sorry, but I do love the smell of freshly printed paper, and the smell of fresh electronics being unwrapped, and the smell of fresh rubber/leather (not in a perverted way
), and the smell of fresh food, and the smell of fresh girls
, and the smell of a fresh forest after the rain...
I like anything fresh...
