It would certainly be interesting.

Do you think so ? Would you even know the differences between the regions of France ? Actually, I would not be interested in that .



To be fair, I'd imagine that not many people from outside the US see many differences between Colorado, Texas, or Washington (as examples) from cultural perspectives, and may cause a perceived lack of interest. I would not be able to tell much differences between the various regions of France (for example), except that I know Champagne comes from there, as does Cognac, though whether either of those two places are actually provinces/states I don't know.


Champagne is, in fact, a region in France. Cognac, however, is a town, not a region.
And from a random fact I read a long time ago they used to make the train tracks divert around cognac because they were worried about the sparks setting the air on fire... although I'm guessing that was made up.


No idea on that one. My wife's book on where certain alcohols are from and how they got their name doesn't mention it.

Utah? Really? Then how come I can't find one decent gaming store??

Been in many of those. None were found. :(
