Peter, I hate to tell you this, but apparently banana peel abuse has 
indeed hit America.  All the symptoms are there, with one noteable 
addition: Farting. 

Go to any trailer park (hmmm... you Oz-trail-yans might call them 
caravan parks?) in any of the Southern states and you'll find banana 
peel abusers by the dozens.

I never knew it was the banana peel - I thought it was cultural!
