True enough, considering that it had long since already been discovered and he had no idea where he really was (thinking he was near India and all). I was just going for a chuckle.

you can't *really* discover a place where c. 100 million people already live(d), any more than I can "discover" and claim Italy as my own. Keep in mind, Columbus-style "discovery" has a long and sinister legal usage as well, as a pretext for disenfranchisement.

Columbus: I wanna' get a picture of you and my men, to prove I discovered you.
Native: Whaddaya' mean you discovered US? WE discovered YOU?
Columbus: Huh?
Native: Certainly! We discovered you on the beach here. It's all how you look at it.
Columbus: Gee, I never thought of it like that...
