GAK, sorry. I keep placing you where Michael is and I put him
slightly North. LOL I need to get myself a map and put pins with
names on them in it. Nah, I'll let someone who is computer literate
do an online map where we can enter our names in the appropriate
location.

I don't know how you rate on the Cosmopolitan scale, but you guys
eclipsed us on the population index years ago.

2000 - Phoenix is the sixth-largest city in the U.S., with a
population of 1,321,045.

The City and County of San Francisco (2004 estimated population
744,230) is the fourth-largest city in the state of California.... NOT
in the US.

Taking into consideration that a large part of your population is
transplanted retirees, you probably have more people in your area who
know about that cheese than we do here.
