 I think it just means nothing. I do not deny that Americans 
 probably are #1 (world cahmpions) in this area (divorce) too.
 But there are very significant % of marriages which are quite
 traditional (conservative). The level of tolerance no doubt
 among people here in matter relating to private affairs is
 low. I don't think that it is proper to generalise. Do you
 know the even among Indian couples in US. the divorce rate
 runs to about 10 to 15%. We Indians are catching up real fast
 with our amercian friends in this aspect.     *** REPLACE THIS LINE WITH YOUR MESSAGE ***
