Funny you should ask this, as I spent an hour the other evening memorising all the states and their locations. Amazing what I can come up with in an attempt to avoid my already late VAT return!

as well as mid-west (michigan)
​
Ok, referring back to my post above, I have now memorised the locations of all of the states. How the hell is Michigan mid-WEST??? It's no wonder that I was always severely confused by your geography, until I ignored everything I had been told and just sat down with a map!

Re: middle muddle
Michigan, btw, is the state that Paul Bunyan and Babe the Blue Ox come from
​
Ah-ha! I've always meant to look up Paul Bunyan, as all the references in KSR's Mars Trilogy (Red, Green, Blue Mars) never made any sense to me. Thanks, now I know...
