Plant patents
I am starting to really enjoy this thread.
It's all very interesting who actually discovered america. It's clear that Columbus wasn't the one. Just like Captain Cook wasn't the first to discover Australian, apparently if the Spanish or Portugese had worked out how great this place is I could be typing this out in a new language.......;-) "Ted Byers" wrote in message .. . "Geir Harris Hedemark" wrote in message ... "Boystrup Pb, ann,..." writes: If we want to go into detail than colombus wasn't the first to arrive. The vikings got there a lot earlier. Yes, but we norwegians are not a very literate people, with a few notable exceptions. If you don't write things down, they haven't happened. But your adventures in North America a thousand years ago WERE written down in several Icelandic sagas. By that time, there were Christian priests throughout most of the Norse world, and while the Icelandic sagas started as oral traditions, they were written down by some of these priests during the eleventh and twelfth centuries.
