Somebody once told me that the Simpsons have to live here in
Massachusetts, because he saw an episode (which I've never seen, so I
can't verify) in which somebody was driving to Springfield on I-90
(which is, for all you furrin-type folks, a highway that goes all the
way from the East coast to the West coast) -- and Massachusetts is the
only state whose Springfield is actually on I-90! :)
