Whoa, boys and girls! Nows'fer all this name-callin, I'gotsta say ... Now folks, really. I'm not a Yankee, in fact I hail from a little town called Boone in North Carolina, and in North Carolina we have a little bit of a rivalry with Tennessee, e.g. we say they can't drive right, and they say something back but we can't understand what they say. I wasn't trying to spark a fight with Tennessee, just pokin' fun with an old neighbor. And contrary to the song, nothin' beats the belles of Tennessee. Ward Travis (travis@cmu-cs-gandalf.arpa)

I'm not so sure I see anything wrong with their driving (I'm a born and raised NJian - which explains the poking going on here by the way), but I will agree with the fact that "ya caant undastaind a wad thay say". >I wasn't trying to spark a fight with Tennessee, just pokin' fun with Not to worry, this was just an opportunity for us Tennesseyun to let the NET know we were here (and do our part to clutter it up :-)).
