[at-l] Racism on or around the AT

[jb2002@adelphia.net (JB)]

Well, living in Ohio and being from Ohio are two very different things.
It has been a mere 2.5 years since my arrival in this state. I have yet
to truly understand native Ohioans, except that football is a religion.

Most of my life has been in yankee territory but the many years in
missouri made me wonder.

However, I am fond of the buckeyes, at least the ones made of chocolate
that look like other buckeye.

	Ah, but were you from Ohio? I've been told (by a high school teacher I
don't particularly trust) that Buckeyes have a harder time in the South,
especially Georgia.

	General Sherman, of the March to the Sea fame, was from Ohio. So was
General Grant...
