buzzwords

Ahh, the glory days of my corporate/dot-com employment. MSN has an article with the new industry buzzwords. And don't forget about Action Item!

Americans

So, I found a use for this thing. The idea about how Europeans hate genetically-modified (GM) foods with a passion, but Americans are mostly indifferent toward them, came up in email. It made me think of the many things that are the opposite -- popular in the rest of the world, but not stateside. Here's my list:

- diesels
- hatchbacks
- nuclear power plants
- Fanta
- pro soccer ("football")
- men's fashion magazines
- the metric system

That's all I could come up with. Feel free to post your own as comments.
