Yank seems OK to me.  Personally, I prefer 'Ami' - sounds more like
'amicable', a quality I think that we should work on.  'Yank', well,
conjures
up pictures of indecent exposure and/or lewd acts, but it's fine,
really.
'Brit' is the usual term, AFAIK.  What are the Canadians?  Is 'Canuk'
perjorative?  I guess that 'Future US Citizen' won't fly ;)  Are the
Australians 'Aussies'?	'Ozzies'?
