We just replaced the toilet in the master bathroom. It only uses 1.28 gallons 
per flush.

That would explain why they're in awe of our waste management abilities...

So, do Australians use outhouses in lieu of septic tanks?

I hadn't heard that one before.  Sounds like it is due to a rhyming between 
yanks / septic tanks and at least some number of Australians thinking Americans 
are full of shit.

unrelated to the google fiber thing, but on the same topic as what other 
nations nickname things. I found out recently Australians like to refer to 
americans as seppos, in reference to septic tanks, which I assume is a way of 
saying they are in awe of our waste management abilities

There's a British newspaper/website that always refers to Google as the 
Chocolate Factory.  Why?  Is this a Willy Wonka reference?  Again, why?  Not 
sure if this is meant as positive or negative.  British sense of humor is 
sometimes difficult to understand.

In the beginning, cities were tripping over themselves to be next because 
fiber! and Google! Once that stopped happening then things got real.
