Is there a reason we shouldn't?

Hah. Cool hadn't noticed that. I've ventured over to your parts a few times.
Lot cleaner .. Lot flatter in some parts.
And yes. I have shoes on.
And Indoor plumbing.  :P

Ya know, of all the states, West Virginia houses more internet people that I know than any other state.  I didn't even know they had that many computers.

Seriously though, they must be more bored than people from other places.

That's 6 in West Virginia!
I only know 3 in New York
4 in Georgia
2 besides me in Regular Virginia
2 in Florida

Oh wait.....I forgot about Washington.  Do they count?

Edit:  I still only count 5 in Washington.  4 in California.

You know, you make a very good point about that.
There really isn't that much to do here in WV. There isn't anything here really, lots of old coal mines and such. Most are bankrupt aside from a few large mining corporations that hold a pretty good lot of sway. Not much in the way of entertainment at all though. Aside from my computer ...

My pprreeeccciioouusss....
*Ahem*
Sorry about that ... :oops:

Maybe 2 1/4.  That seems a bit more on the mark.

Personally, I vote for 2 1/3. That should solve all your problems.

As Senator of Massachusetts, I propose:

Anyone who acts in a manner determined to be "N00bish", in accordance with the rules of this great forum, shall henceforth only count as 3/5 of a person in regards to voting.

That all those who become "Banninated" be thrown into a posted list, with the reason for why they were banned, so that there is no confusion as to who "Bobby" is or any other such user.

Too bad you don't have much pull, Mr. Senator.

Yeah, what good is a Senator when we already have the Czar, the Queen, the Goddess and the Emperor?
