In Soviet China...

I'm curious; do you consider saying that Hong Kong was shown where Rio is the mistake, or is saying that the hornets aren't in Hong Kong the mistake? Because that's all he's said. I'm interested in which of those two things you think is incorrect? Though you do say English isn't your language; maybe you're misunderstanding him and think he said something else?
His example is the mistake. He chose two locations on the same continent. To replicate the errors in the pic that I posted, the second city needs to be placed on another continent, just naming an erroneous city is not sufficiant. It is pretty clear.

Yeah, you're misunderstand him. You're conflating his two separate points.

He mentioned two cities on the same continent because he was saying that claiming it was in Hong Hong when it was actually in the northern Shaanxi province was akin to saying it was in Miami when it was actually in Oklahoma. That comment had nothing to do with the continent map you posted; just that Hong Kong is not where the hornets actually are.
 

I somehow understood you in spite of my American-ness.
I think we all understand what goldomark has said. It's just that he is wrong in saying NewJeffCT is mistaken.

Not only is NewJeffCT correct, he's correct on two counts -- one that goldomark was talking about, and one that goldomark didn't notice/mention, himself.

Unless someone else posted that same map and the same question that I aksed, NewJeffCT's post had everything to do with the map and question I posted.

If you want to ignore the blantant mistake NewJeffCT in making an iccorect analogy, sure. But you just do not like me.

goldomark, I mean this with all sincerity in the hope of you coming out of this looking good, but you might want to think about stopping now; you're making a bit of a fool of yourself in public. Something NewJeffCT said clearly went right over your head, and you don't understand it (even despite it being explained to you) - in fact, you haven't even seen it. Unfortunately for you, everybody else does. Trust me, you've missed the point on this one; he didn't say what you think he said.

Please, have you seen NewJeffCT's post? He clearly mentions two cities on the same continent, and you clearly posted the correct name of the continent on which CNN made the mistake. I do not understand why you keep defending NewJeffCT when he clearly posted an innaccurate analogy. If anything, you look foolish on your own website.

Well, OK, dude. You just carry on then! Enjoy yourself!
