[extropy-chat] now here is craftiness...

[Brian Lee]

I'm not sure if this is a joke or not. But after spending 5 years in south 
Georgia, not only have I never been hassled or beaten down, I've never heard 
a first hand report of someone who has. I've also spent a few summers in the 
Adirondacks of northern New York and the rednecks there are just as 
terrifying, but I never heard of them beating someone down either.

I have seen "I Spit on Your Grave" and it has a story of northern 
nednecks/hillbillies.
