The uppers (pronounced oopers) call us trolls, because we live below the bridge.

My friend from Royal Oak must have been messing with me then.  He told me the folks in lower Michigan were called "Lopers".  ::lol

:p   That is nitpicky in fact because I could make surface comparisons between Japan and France just as easily, but I know the natives wouldn't have any of it.  

Actually, I was referring more to the "culture" of each state, rather than whatever theme parks or geography they have to offer.  I do see what you are saying, but I should have been more clear in my earlier statement.  I meant the people and the culture.

And palm trees are not indigenous to California, whether or not the settlers decided to plant them there. ;)

:p I know, I know. See, I have a weird sense of humor. You'll get used to it. The others have :p .

::viking Yes Maibh, the polite name for people in the lower part of the state is "Lopers".  We will even call ourselves that. I said the Uppers call us trolls, I didn't say they were being polite doing it.  The main industry in the UP is tourist, so naturally, when they are gone, the locals make fun of them.

I'm not sure, but I think it's after ten posts. You might have to ask ::bowdown Paul ::bowdown that question.
