Could the stats be skewed by the fact that he U.S. was the leader in
developing the internet and dial-up was the dominant connection for so many
years?  Other countries, developing their internet infrastructure later may
have leapfrogged right over the dial-up technology and so more of their
connections would be high-speed, where in the U.S. the legacy of dial-up
might lower our average?
