    97% of Card's work is either mediocre or crap. Still, better than most scifi writers.

    As for Columbus, discovering the Americas was almost definitely a (major) net good for humanity, so I'll give him a pass. Probably doesn't deserve his own day though since he did it by accident/because of his own stupidity/in such a genocidal manner.

      Because they're not white like me. Duh.

          Eh... we celebrate accidents all the time. We call them birthdays.
