“We are again developing communities, but these are not communities based on geography. My neighbor is not the guy next to me. It’s the person that shares the same interests as I do.”

Does anyone know the full words of the poem that starts: "In fourteen hundred and ninety-two/Columbus sailed the ocean blue..." and ends something like "The first American? Not quite./But he was bold and brave and bright." Comments can be used for more than snide remarks! Better yet, the author. Not that it’s a very good poem, but now it’s itching my brain.
