That was very good. Trouble is is that there are so many stupid ones out there that they probably didn't have many good ones to throw away.

Poor things.
Bet they only picked on the well educated idiots. There are lots like this in many countries.
We should really try to help them, as they usually listed under the category of politicians. lol

Well, Its a fact, that most Americans are geographically challenged because we are so HUGE. Everywhere we go, see, eat, drink is AMERICA. You can drive 15 hours and still be in AMERICA. So we are pretty much self contained.

Europe on the other hand, Youre in a new country every 4 hours, and some less than that. States here are bigger than most of the countries in Europe, and therefore they tend not to be as geographically isolated. Americans dont understand this unless they are very wealthy and well traveled, or, have been in the military and been overseas. So even tho we are taught about these places in school, these are things we quickly forget, as they are things we dont have to deal with daily, weekly, or even monthly. Its like algebraic equasions, unless youre a programmer, mathematician, teacher, draftsman, or in construction.. you never use them again.. so you forget what they are!
