    What's not in Columbia anymore..

    Which Columbia are we talking about here? And why?


    SC. It keeps me busy.

    OK. For some reason, I was thinking Maryland.

    I would guess that majority of non-US readers don't know about
    existence of both of these places.
    I personally had two options in mind: a big country in South America and
    a big university in NYC. Both are sorta closing, if not literally.

    The trouble is the minority of US posters who don't know about the
    existence of non-US places.

    The country is spelt "Colombia" - but it's still the first thing I
    thought of.

    Maybe US readers don’t realize that one of those is not “Columbia”.
