is Anon a bot?

hmm..

pro_junior: hey Anon have you been to the USA?

Anon: hey pro, be sure you're getting enough Vitamin B...

PP is quasi jr, not a bot...

as for the "Midwest".. I grew up in Minnesota and never considered anything East of the Mississippi river to be part of the Midwest...more like North Central.

I've seen 47 of the 48 contiguous states (have never been to Maine, Alaska, or Hawaii) and I would say the most friendly, genuine, and honest people are nowhere near either coast. You don't see much in the way of litter or graffiti in the central/midwest states. Massive bum camps only seem to exist in cities on the West Coast.
As for climate, the Pacific Northwest is great from late spring to mid fall, the winter is nonstop grey skies and rain. Winter in the southern states is mild but too hot there in the summer.
