31. You don't really understand why the USA is special on November 22, 2011?
I think some people are not understanding my use of the word "special".

It doesn't mean inherently better. 1861 through 1865 was a special time in American history.

From an historical context, the USA is a special country in 2011 in a way most countries are not.

The bubonic plague was special too. I do not want to see a repeat.
