Is Latin America not partially part of North America? -- Zoe

As I understand it, North America is Panama and everything north of it; South America starts at Columbia. Latin America is those American countries with Spanish or Portugese backgrounds; Mexico, definitiely part of North America, is Latin American; but some South American countries are arguably not Latin American, e.g. Suriname, which is of Dutch and African background. -- An.

You are quite right. But to make Latin America and North America to be different things is not right. Part of Latin America is in North America. -- Zoe

I wonder whether Kevin McFadden is in any way related to Gates McFadden (who played Beverly Crusher in Star Trek: The Next Generation)? Seems like a bit of a coincidence, with his pen name being Christopher Pike — Danc 10:29, 24 Jun 2004 (UTC)

It is unlikely; if he is related to Gates McFadden they are only a few years apart in age (so possible cousins or brother and sister). Also, he published Cheerleaders #2: Getting Even as "Christopher Pike" in 1985... Star Trek: The Next Generation didn't start until 1987... so it could NOT have been in tribute to her being on the show. In other words, it would be a major coincidence if they are related (or their family loved Star Trek, ha ha).

Sorry. If we knew more than there is in the article already, we'd have put it in the article. --Paul A 03:02, 21 Sep 2004 (UTC)
