Ross Week's question -- "what is a 'Yankee,' anyway?" -- reminds me of a
favorite old joke:
In most of the world, a "Yankee" is someone from the United States.
In the United States, a "Yankee" is someone from north of the
Mason-Dixon line.
North of the Mason-Dixon line, a "Yankee" is someone from New England.
In New England, a "Yankee" is someone from Vermont.
Offered on a Friday afternoon, with no malice towards anyone,
Vermontonian or otherwise....
