Yeah .... I know neither statement is true, but a lot of folks out there are geographically ignorant. (A talk-show host here ... Jay Leno does a bit called "Jay-Walking" from time to time, where he quizzes them on things you would think most people would know. Then, he does an in-studio bit called "Jay-Walk Allstars."
Those people (and some of them are TEACHERS in this country) couldn't pick out China on a map of the world ... and one thought that Antarctica was Australia.
