Another fun fact: Isla Robinson Crusoe in the Pacific off the Chilean coast is at roughly the same longitude as New York City.
Very little of South America is west of NY. A globe really highlights the positioning of landmasses in the different hemispheres.
​
Easter Island is the same longitude as western Colorado.

"God did it" is not an argument. It is an excuse for intellectual laziness.
