khristle doesn't think that Kentucky is part of "The South".

Y'know... Kentucky Derby, "My Old Kentucky Home", Kentucky Fried Chicken, Bluegrass music...

She says "They're not part of The South... they're just kinda slow".

What do YOU think?

I put forth two irrefutable facts -

1) My husband is southern, and he says Kentucky is in the south.
2) Kentucky is south of the Mason-Dixon line, commonly considered to separate the north from the south.

However - she is right about them being slow.

So parts of Ohio should be considered "The South"?

According to Wiki-Pedia, no part of Ohio is south of the Mason-Dixon line. So. No.

Unless you meant because some of them are slow. And then we'd have to add a *lot* more states to "the south".

Ah, I see. You go from the bottom of the vertical line and anything below that is "The South". I was just extending the horizontal line westward.

Anyway, this whole thing has been muddled now, but I think I was trying to say that Kentucky isn't the south geographically speaking. I consider Georgia, Mississippi, Louisiana, Florida, and the Carolinas to be "The South".
