Yeah, like I said, been there, done that. All that's well and good, but there's no need to make a milestone of the US in particular. At least set the bar one step higher, which Wikipedia tells me is actually Lithuania. I find that puts things in perspective a bit better, honestly. And if you need a fancy big economy Japan is just a couple steps up that ladder.
