I think we have to hope that ALL the intelligent replies were edited out because they weren't funny. You know, I think one of the guys was actually recalling something from history class. When he was asked about the Axis of Evil- he named Germany- I think he was recalling his school history, and remembering the Axis powers. In a way that was kind of hopeful. People DO remember- they just never review, and refresh. Clearly people are NOT seeing maps enough. I know my kids see them all the time in school, so is the problem that people simply never revisit maps once they leave school? What IS the deal? I mean not recognizing the continent of Australia, even when labeled incorrectly?
