I was under the impression that you understood that Pennsyltucky has a "culture." Folkways and customs frequently involve an area larger than a neighborhood or town.
I'll take full responsibility for the misunderstanding. I sometimes forget that people oftentimes do not have what I assume is common knowledge, such as "what a custom is" or "how many eggs are in a dozen eggs."
As an aside, if you think that people ought behave consistently once they enter the interstate system because "I-76 is I-76, gosh darn it"... Ummm, good luck with that. I think I ought be able to fly by flapping my arms, so we, at the very least, share a desire for unlikely things.
