I don't have a problem with the name, and I live on the east coast. Then again, I also don't mind watching movies by 20th Century Fox, working on an International Business Machine computer, using tape made by Minnesota Mining & Manufacturing or having my iPhone use American Telegram & Telegraph 'lines' to access my apps. Don't get me started about how to get young people more interested, but you may want to check my blog post from earlier this week where I wrote a post about where I did find young people gardening!
