We definitely could, but I like comparing things. You don't have to think there's a best, I just think there is and I wrote about it. A couple Europeans saidwe weren't the best, and I disagreed, so I argued. Then I apologized.
BTW I apologized, and I get 1 star? What else do you guys want me to do?
