"The map represented a remarkable number of historical firsts. In
addition to giving America its name, it was also the first map to
portray the New World as a separate continent - even though Columbus,
Vespucci, and other early explorers would all insist until their dying
day that they had reached the far-eastern limits of Asia."

declared on sci.arch. You owe me an apology." (David Ch)

instead, honesty is the best policy." (David Ch)
