I didn't mean, Chas, that I hadn't heard it until you used it *this week*
I meant I'd never heard it until you first showed up on the Vizzz, whenever
that was. (maybe that was October 05)
Which begs the question . . . Don't we refer to those of Chinese, Korean,
and Japanese descent "Asian"? Seems to me I'm as American as they are
Asian, right?
Just a thought. It's better than thinking of snow.

That saddens me somewhat, as it indicates really how non-memorable my words
are.
I used the word "USian" in a Viz dialogue with YOU, Dan, on 10/19/05:
> Anyway, I've lived in many places on this globe, many of them arguably
as wonderful as the USA. I am lucky to have the right to live here, I
know. As a USian, I live better than 99% of the global population.
But that isn't why I live here instead of England, Canada, Holland,
Belgium, etc.
The earliest that I've been able to Google my use of it on the
Internet, period, is 01/25/03.
I've used it on the Viz in about 7 different circumstances, according
to Google, not counting today.
