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

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.
