Your point was well proven to me today, standing in line at the grocery
(oh,
joy!).	A person (I will not be snide and comment on ancestry, gender or
neural activity level) was deriding their child's choice of a date,
seeing as
how the date was from the 'Southside'.	Of the same city.  Sheesh, I can
be
naive, somedays.  We seem to treat every distance as if it were an
interplanetary gulf.  Oh, well.  More speculation necessary.
