I remember this discussion from over 6 months ago. If everyone in a given
place, "USA", calls their People "Americans", then that's what they are. David
made up the term USAian, and has been playing this childish game for many
months now. 

At least I am giving him credit by saying his constant ramblings are part of a
childish game.  What if he really doesn't understand? Then, we really have been
writing to a complete imbecile.

Check the Wiktionary.  You'll find the first definition of American to be "a
U.S. citizen" and the second definition to be "an inhabitant of the Americas".

They are both correct.  If you search USAian, there is no such word.
