Not from the US either, but I've lived here a long time. I don't think the connotations are specific to the US, though. If someone calls your behavior/characteristics creepy here, it's a very bad sign. http:/&#x2F

I tried this a few days ago, it seems like a cool concept, but I found the whole thing a bit bewildering. Is there a tutorial for it like emacs's C-h t?

Do you think a typical person from 1995 would be happy to hear what the state of civil liberties would be in 2015? I would have been shocked.
