No, don't change. This is a great aspect of this list: exposing us all to
other cultural peculiarities - and even for somebody like me, for whom
English is not the mother tongue, but who likes this language very much.
As for cultural peculiarities... for us Europeans, all this talk about guns,
or any passing reference to "church activities"... reminds us that on the
other side of the pond, things we do not even consider seriously are very
much alive - and probably the other way around too!
Just keep it that way - we all learn from our differences - if only, that
there _are_ differences ;-)
