Where's America...oh, there it is...gimme the day.

The stupidity of it all is that Columbus didn't discover America. America is named after Amerigo Vespucci. Not Columbus. The native Americans arrived to the continent tens of thousands of years before from Asia.. and hundreds of years before Columbus even concocted the notion of his trip 'west', the Viking/Norse had already landed in what is now eastern Canada. Some evidence (still discussed in scientific circles) suggest some peoples from the south Pacific may have even arrived in western South America by boat and settled there. The evidence being local pottery styles/methods being identical to certain south Pacific cultures.
