As a fellow immigrant, most everything in this commentary rings true, except the desire for diet coke, which thank god I still don't appreciate, with or without ice. The incremental changes in one's outlook, which go un-noticed most of the time, come into sharp focus during visits "home", and this piece describes this phenomena perfectly. Well-written and pithy, this essay is perfect for ATC or ME, or on a show focusing on immigration.
