     Chad, that's because you're from Mich. and not the "other" northern states.  You don't start a coversation with, well back in NY, etc.  That and few people from Michigan come down here to change it to be like up north.  So you are more easily accepted into the fold, than someone from the eastern north. I have Yankee cousins up in Trego, Wisconsin, formerly from St. Paul Min. El D, we are still tight man, you see there are Yankees, and then there are those D@#n Yankees.  Those are the ones who move down here and immediately start complaining, and whining how great it was up north.  And start whining to the D@#n Yankee city commissioners, and start building golf courses, Malls, that go bust in 4-5 years, and do it again two miles down the road.  I-95 goes north also.  Leaving Florida?  Take a Friend.   ;D  No offense meant to anyone from the eastern north.  My GirlFriend is a far left liberal from Mass.  But if you move to Fla. leave it the hell alone!  If you don't like it, go back.  You come down here and complain and whine the whole time.  Go back to where that is the accepted norm.  You can keep your tourism.  You come down here with a white shirt, and 100.00 bill, stay for two weeks, and don't change either one. :P  The true natives, are few and far between.  There are some transplanted southerners, who have been here a long time, but still not TRUE born here natives.  And the new generation of born here natives, are of recent arrvials from the eastern northern states.  So I guess you could say that they would be the native Whine-ahs.   ;D
