	So what's your excuse for top-posting?  And just exactly what
makes you think that anyone claiming the Toltecs are going to take
over the U.S. is serious?  I'll wager you believe that 'gullible' is
a real word.

	I know I am right about those people.  I was pointing out that
you have no clue what you're talking about.

>Three, you are wrong about everything else.

	Well, that leaves the definitions of Latino and Latin America.

Latino:  1. A Latin American.

Latin America:  The countries of the Western Hemisphere south of
the United States, expecially those speaking Spanish, Portuguese
or French.

	Both definitions from _The Houghton Mifflin Dictionary
of Geography.  Now let's have a look-see what Merrian-Webster's
has to say.

Latino: 1. a native or inhabitant of Latin America.

Latin America: 1. Spanish America and Brazil  2. all of the Americas 
south of the U.S.

	It seems that I was right about everything and you were
wrong about everything.  The next time you decide to spout off,
I suggest you learn something about the subject being discussed.

>(sorry that was uncalled for too I suppose....).

	I'm oh-so hurt by your cutting remark.

	Now, run along.
