Hi, geographically oriented folks --

I thought y'all would get a kick out of the following.

Several weeks ago, I was at a conference of oncologists and wound up talking to a lady from Minnesota who introduced me to a lady from Michigan.  Shortly, a friend of mine came up and I introduced her to both of them.  After other ladies left, my friend and I
were talking for quite a while.  Then she asked me where one of the ladies was from.  I told her Minnesota.  Then my friend said, "Aha, one of the M places."  Then she explained, " I know about the east coast and the west coast as well as Alaska and Hawaii,
but all other places in the United States are M places, they're in the middle and I always fly over them so I don't have to know where they are."

Can this be a case of ignorance is bliss?  ;-)
