>No, I have no relatives in RI.

Well, of course, I do. Many. Most of 'em on my parents' side, in fact.

Another interesting thing, and probably not unrelated to rhubarb in some
way as yet unknown to me (the starting point of all religions, BTW), is
that Rhode Island is seen as the home for a great many 'strange' people,
mostly because of the Lovecraft/Poe connections, I'm afraid. (Why do they
so soon forget Baltimore to clasp onto that poor, small, tide-embattered
statelet?)

And- a guy named _Roger_ Williams founded Rhode Island. An interesting
character in his own right, but anytime such a surname connected so
surely to a spot gets attached to a suspicious UL, then, well, that's a
real red flag.

This is CoV, folks, not UL's R Us.... I've seen totally _too_ many
parades of UL's around here. We should be a little more discerning in our
rumor-mongering, yes?
