No. Although the USS Missouri (BB-63) is at Pearl, she is very much
afloat.

No, no, no. You've got it all confused. Villasur went from Santa Fe to
the Plate (not the Missouri), which is Spanish for silver, which is not
a horse, in 1719, which was not 1519, nor was it 1520 (nor 1720) as was
initially proposed; moreover, it was not Crow Creek nor Clear Creek
which is where Denver is now. One of the more thoughtful Spaniards of
his day--indeed, he was known to his compatriots as "Cerebral
Cortex"--was not with them, however, he was back on the beach at
Cotzumel (or as the proto-Aztec Olmecs knew it, Calomel, or Malomar,
which is not Palomar where the telescope would be) trying to make a deal
with the Kiahuitans, or Ruritans, not the Puritans, for one of those
small cars designed by Porsche for Volkswagen, a Carmen Chia. It was
Verendrye who found the lead tablets left by La Salle du Bain, but they
were in a child-proof bottle and he couldn't open it.
Do you understand now?
