Hmmmm.  Maybe a quick look in an atlas would help you understand.
'capdist' in the title of this group is an abbreviation for "Capital District".
That means the Capital District of New York State, a political, social, and 
geographical entity wholly distinct from New York City, and incidentally about
150 miles north of that metropolis.

Hope this helps :-)
