We have different flags - and citing England as the "best at" half a dozen things in 1900 and then showing the Union Flag is a bit like talking about Texas but showing the Stars and Stripes as its flag..... Simon PS: yes, I know it's petty, but any Brit in the audience at that presentation would have ignored anything else said, on the grounds that if they can't get something so simple right, what chance is there that anything else is right..... maybe not all that rational but that's the way nationalities make us feel!
