ABC News may have gotten it wrong. According to the Holland Sentinel
http://www.hollandsentinel.com/opini...-is-right-here
Hoolland, Michigan was only #2 in the Gallup poll. They said that
Boulder, Colorado is #1.

Nice read from what looks to be a good local paper. i didn't check
Boulder, but i'm betting Holland has a better hometown feel to it.
been to Boulder, and IIRC, they had the same troubles my locals
had.

Holland,Michigan and the Netherlands (there are two Hollands in the
Netherlands, North Holland and also South Holland.Holland is not a
Country like those dizzy dipwits at the Goodwill store think) are nice
during the Tulip Festivals over there.Didn't the Tulip originally come
from Asia?

Yes, the tulip seems to have originated in Asia.

By the way, I'm currently reading a book entitled 'Tulipo Mania' and it's not
only about the history of the tulip, but about how folks went crazy over them
in the Netherlands during the 1600's.

I live about 35 miles from there. It's ok but nothing really oustanding
as far as a quality of life issue. They have a nice beach there on L.
Michigan and a large Industrial Park. But in my opinion there are better
places in Michigan to live than Holland. I'm sure that DX Ace would
agree with me.

Oh, I don't know, I'm reasonably happy here.

Holland, MI. Happy, Happy!

If Roger stops on by, first, he can disconnect his WebTV box and bring
that and his WebTV keyboard and his WebTV hand held remote and either
hook up his WebTV box to your tv set or take one of his tv sets (if he
has more than one tv set) with him and show you how it works.
