| That is the same for europe, N/S cold/hot. Personally I am convinced by now the difference is mainly cultural, how people live. Some things ~2x size (i might be off a bit but the list is large, I am open to be convinced otherwise) : Fridge Clothes dryer Food plate fullness Amount of conservatives in food Car HP and m2 parking space PC PSU wattage ml in medium drink amount of ice cubes in cold drinks Tap water full flow rate Breakfast calories (bacon/eggs) Sugar in bread Amount of packaging material resp. content kg of luggage in flights Number of short flights / person Cars/ bicycles ratio Still, it just amazes me. Its not because of wealth or temperature. Again, I am open to corrections, I am curious about other's thoughts and want to learn. |
