[MD] politics and food

[Ian Glendinning]

Hi Craig, Arlo,

Huntsville is indeed where I have been these past two years ...
Tennessee Valley and very much culturally part of Tennessee rather
than "greater Alabama" as you say, but out of town, the boondocks are
no respecters of political borders anyway. The river(s) and the
ridge(s) hold sway. The straight-line state borders are mythical
objects.

In the words of the song,
Look out any window ... you can only see as far as the next big ridge.

(Some distantrelatives still there.)The only place in Alabama I've been is Huntsville, which I'm sureIan can confirm, is within the political borders of AL, butgeographically is in the Tennessee Valley & as a aerospace & techcenter, sociologically like Oak Ridge TN.Craig
