It also depends on which town/city you're talking about. If I said I live in Richmond/USA, most people would assume the Richmond that resides in Virginia. There is probably a Richmond in most of the 50 states, so it's important to point out that I live in the one in Indiana.

If you're from Manhattan, not need to expand any further on it's whereabouts.

Well, there is a Manhattan, Kansas.

I am very accustomed to saying "Vancouver, BC" since there is a relatively large Vancouver, WA (right across the river from Portland, OR). Seattle is pretty much equidistant from the two Vancouvers.

Bahahahaha.... I did not know this

And there are Madhatters in most cities.

And there's a Manhattan Beach in Southern California. Which is what I might think of.

You're right Jay, it really depends where you are. From here Calgary is just 'out there'.

I have a friend that works for Manhattan Associates in Atlanta.

Rugby = Rugby

Crazy American's. It's like when they say "Tuna Fish".
In Canada, when we say Tuna, we just assume it is a fish.

The Utah Nordic Alliance doesn't like that assumption.

I love this forum.

Starts out a thread about some bitter guy with an ego problem on some other forum posting god-knows-what irrelevance about a brand of speakers that he dislikes and it ends up being a discussion about Canadian geography. Perhaps not the most amazing topic diversion ever, but it's up there....

And not *all* Americans say "tuna-fish". I am an American, and I have never said "tuna-fish" when referencing tuna.
