Nor was it your dress that gave you away a European tourist could as easily have purchased in Des Moines your suit, with its single vent, and your button-down shirt. How did I know you were American? No, not by the color of your skin we have a range of complexions in this country, and yours occurs often among the people of our northwest frontier. I noticed that you were looking for something more than looking, in fact you seemed to be on a mission, and since I am both a native of this city and a speaker of your language, I thought I might offer you my services. Do not be frightened by my beard: I am a lover of America. EXCUSE ME, SIR, but may I be of assistance? Ah, I see I have alarmed you.
