    This is old at the OT. Besides, I don't think americans have such a good grasp of the worlds geography.

    This same tired old troll has been making the rounds for years. I know V is a bit on the slow side but surely he should have seen this before now.

    Quite possible. I'm also wondering whether the creator actually believes there are vast jungles all over Argentina.

    Um . . .

    how many times has someone shown this type of map before, on Apolyton??
    This is where an awesome Mark Twain quote would be, but Apolyton says it would be too many lines. :(
