Hey now...I wasn't making fun. More like poking fun. I grew up with a father who was fluent in latin...so I pick up on it a bit quicker. And yes..."America" is sort of a derivitive of Amerigo Vespucci's name. I'm not exactly sure why...he didn't come here until 1499...7 years after Columbus. Then again...the Chinese found their way here in 1420. It doesn't get much more off topic than this folks.
