[Sigia-l] is midwest, is not midwest

Facinating topic.  I think I've gotten about 50 messages today about it.  Perhaps it's time to lay it to rest, and move on to something else?

There are 12 states in the midwest: 
Arkansas 
Iowa 
Illinois 
Indiana 
Kansas 
Michigan 
Minnesota 
Missouri 
North Dakota 
Ohio 
Oklahoma 
South Dakota 

These are defined for geo-political reasons, which have been discussed
already.  The federal government has, as well as academics, geographers,
and teachers have, clearly defined the midwest as these 12 states.
Probably, anyone FROM these states know that they are in the Midwest.
