More on how people in other parts of the country/world have no clue about geography from my friend Anne:

When I was a student in London, I drew a map for my English friends who thought they knew all about the US. It had all of north America, Canada was a tiny little dot somewhere around Greenland. DALLAS was written in big letters across the whole southwest (this was 1983), then Hollywood was all of California and Disney World was the whole south. New York got a little dot too. The rest of the country was labeled FLYOVER.
