Hello, All!

Well for those who feel that such things are important, it
seems that at least some of Columbus' remains are in Spain:

However, since the Dominicans won't let their relic
collection be tested, it is still possible that pieces of
Columbus' bones are also there. Now, if they'd cremated him
there'd be no answer and they could enjoy arguing for ever.


And yes. Columbus never discovered the USA. In fact he never
set foot on the USA.



And what on earth is the relevance of that comment? :-)
