Default Italian 00 Flour

Don't know if it still happens, but when I lived in Mexico many years ago
and made the mistake of calling natives of the USA Americans, the Mexican I
was talking with just might look at me and ask Y quien estamos? And what
are we? (My Spanish is even worse today then it was then, but you get the
idea.)

The proper term for USA citizens, at least there, at that time, was Norte
Americanos.

Hi Graham.

Does that not qualify as being in "America"?

After all, every stretch of land from Alaska to Chile would be in America,
even the USofA.

How did you get to exclude Canada from the american continent?

That would make OHS very happy, one less porous border to watch.
