    Wow, no Africans! That's telling you something. Although I think there is an African on the board somewhere. He's making an Africa: Total War mod.

    Continents?

    Bah! humbug!

    Who needs them?

    Bearing in mind that the two nearest continents to where I live are Antarctica and Australia, you can see where I am coming from.

    You're half wrong.

    Europeans are generally taught that there are six continents: Africa, America, Antarctica, Asia, Australia, and Europe.

    Americans, on the other hand, are generally taught that there are seven continents: Africa, North America, South America, Antarctica, Asia, Australia, and Europe.

    Given the size of the combined North and South Americans continents, combined with the wide cultural differences between the two, I would tend to agree that North and South America are in fact two seperate continents.

    BTW, Goofball, what differences the continents are not its cultural differences or its size, but their tectonic origin and relative movements with respect to one another.

    I pledge allegiance to the underworld One nation under dog,There of which I stand alone,A face in the crowdUnsung, against the mold
    Without a doubt
    Singled out

    Stepped out of the line,Like a sheep runs from the herd
    Marching out of time,To my own beat now
    The only way I know

    One light, one mind,Flashing in the dark
    Blinded by the silence of a thousand broken hearts

    You are correct if you are referring to the geological scientific community's use of the word "continent." Which is why said community uses only six continents: Africa, Antarctica, Australia, Eurasia, North America, and South America.

    Historically, however, the general populace has generally divided the world up into continents based upon such things as culture and size. As I am part of the general populace, and not the geological scientific community, I choose to use this also correct method.

    A matter of taste. I prefer the geologic version. And besides, where starts South America? When the USA ends? Thats not even central america there, but the mexicans are much more like the bolivians or uruguayans than north americans in the sense of culture, etc.

    And as of size, Asia is much bigger, but noone tried to split it yet.Altho you never know, maybe we will get american Asia in another Bush administration.

    Nevermind. Dont really want to get int a political debate, just cheap sarcasm.

    Well if you prefer the geoligical version, then you would agree with me that North and South America are two seperate continents.

    Mexico, btw, is considered part of North America, and everything south of Mexico is considered South America. The term Central America is not used to describe a continent, but to describe a region.

    USA! [That is to say, I'm a resident of the continent sometimes referred to as "America" and sometimes referred to as "North America." I propose that the United States be its own continent, separating North and South Americas. And if you say, "No, America is too small for its own continent," I will reply, "But we have more nuclear weapons." *]

    Didn't know there were so many Europeans here.








    *I am kidding, of course.

    Nope. That big hole that usually goes in between those tectonic continents goes along the western mexican coast right thru S.Francisco and separates the californian peninsula from the resto of the continent (well, part of it). Thats why the area is so generous in terms of earthquakes.

    There is no physical separation between north and south america, except the Panama channel, but thats a different matter altogether.

    Man, the things I will argue about when I'm bored...
    Boy, this is nothing. You should see me in a 13 hour long bus trip.... I was creating my own theory about black holes, and imagining a world where all the words ended with an "r"..... Now, this is classified information..
