Unwilling. I have no need to prove anything.

It's not MY job to do your work for you.

'For me?' I'm not the one who wanted the proof.

We, as Americans, own a variety of automobiles that are capable of going 200 - 300 miles on a single tankfull of Gasoline. Why do you think we use so much Gasoline?

Too lazy to walk to the corner 7-Eleven?

Your ignorance of North American geography and culture is both broad and deep. And it shows, much to your discredit.

Yes, it really is a shame... But AS an American, I've been in EVERY state of the Union including Alaska and Hawaii, traveled through and experienced ALL of them on the back of a motorcycle, (as well as most of its protectorates and territories including Puerto Rico, Guam, the Philippines, Federated States of Micronesia, Northern Mariana Islands and Palau, etc., although a couple of these are now completely independent but still use US currency, ) (by the way, did you know that Guam used to have the LARGEST Sears store in the world, is is still the second largest consumer per population ratio of Spam in the world? I used to watch Guamanians purchase it by the pallet-load at Costco!) lived in seven of them, taught cross-cultural studies at university in two of them, and only left the US as an older adult to further my cross-cultural knowledge.
There is a slight possibility that I do posses some small degree of knowledge and understanding of American geography and culture, although I do admit to only a very limited knowledge (or care) of American politics. There certainly is still a lot more I could have learned about the US.
So, sorry, but if 'proof' is what
you require, please do your own work.
[Edit: I confess... I've never been to the Marshall Islands. There isn't any good scuba diving there...
