Just out of interest, can you remember any of the other six?

That seems unfair on yourself and many of your fellow countrymen. The U.S. certainly has no monopoly on stupidity, I'm pretty sure it's rife everywhere. Example; my mother still tells the story of how she overheard two people talking on a bus. One of them said, and my mother swears that this is true;
"I read a book once...it was green"
