Local Customs for Visitors to America: Two Guides

Following up on a question I ran into online yesterday, I looked up two pretty good guides to American customs for visitors to this country:

"ETIQUETTE AND LOCAL CUSTOMS IN NEW YORK CITY"
CitiDex.com

This is quick introduction to American customs in general, and New York City in particular.

"Tips and Guidelines
Especially for international visitors
"
Prepared for the 34th Annual Meeting and Conference of COMPUTER APPLICATIONS AND QUANTITATIVE METHODS IN ARCHAEOLOGY / CAA2006 in Fargo, North Dakota.

Don't let the location fool you: this is a good guide. It's a 7-page 'Acrobat' (pdf format) document that can be viewed online or printed. It's a good deal more comprehensive than the New York City guide, and includes details like how American electrical outlets work, and making long-distance calls.

Some of the information is specific to the Fargo-Moorhead metropolitan area, but most would be useful anywhere in the United States.

Actually, some of yesterday's news may be here. Or maybe last week's.
The software and science stuff might still be interesting, though. Or not.
