Could I ask how many miles per week you are able to do barefoot? I trained in flats once (which I guess are closer to barefoot than "normal" shoes) and typically found that this irritated knee and hip problems that normal shoes suppressed, especially during high mileage weeks.

I agree with you're main point - its definitely possible to maintain one's culture despite changes like the introduction of TV. Some things will change, but not all. Visit southern Germany if you don't agree...
However, "American culture" isn't an oxymoron: John Irving, Andy Warhol, Kurt Vonnegut, Sousa, Harriert Beecher Stowe; Jazz, Rock&Roll, Comic Books, and Football are all exmaples of good American culture. It just sucks that the image broadcasted by media giants speaks the loudest and isn't the best part of an otherwise rich heritage.
