I didn't intend to use the USian word as a pejorative word and I didn't 
even know it was. Columbia is in america so does Canada so I think it's 
presumptuous for just the US citizens to be called americans. If other 
feel the USian is pejorative, I'd gladely change the word.

It would have been good if you spoke up earlier instead of being silent.
