I'm pretty sure I sent you a link to a YouTube video of myself standing in a field (or other population group/assembly/collective noun) of cattails, which included a closeup of my cell phone GPS reading, indicating latitude, longitude, and ZIP code. 

Q. E. D.

As for not living on it, I didn't say which island, did I? And sometimes you can't get a comprehensive view of something by standing on it, can you?

Further, I'll point out that that the guy I was quoting was an Irishman speaking of Ireland, living in Scotland at the time... so what's your point? Could it be that you're... not right... in the head...? ;-)
