RMS made the unforgiveable mistake of failing to adjust to the "cultural 
context."
Now what might have been the outcome, if, for example, RMS had the wit 
and wisdom of the Philippine national hero Carlos Romulo.

At a reception in Texas, the short statured Romulo was asked how he felt 
being among a bunch a tall Texans who towered over him.  His reply: "I 
feel like a dime among nickels."

But. come to think of it, RMS probably feels like a dime among nickels 
wherever he goes.
