The BBC reports more Britons than Americans died on the Titanic because the former were more "gentlemanly" and the latter more "individualistic" (http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/7843154.stm).
So do we celebrate this as further evidence of America's inevitable triumph over our monarch-loving oppressors, or shamefacedly admit we're a bunch of selfish greedheads?

There's a really good joke in here somewhere, but I'm too tired to find it.
