HG, you might got something there. Boone is pretty much on par with Mingo.

See in my line of work, optics engineering, the only thing my coworkersthink about rednecks is they are stupid, they hunt, things like that. They get this from TV basically. I mean when I got to England next week, those guys BT (british telecom) even know what a redneck is and bascially give me a hard time for it. Maybe I shouldn't take it so seriously and just laugh, but I would like my peers in the engineering world to take me seriously. Not ask me if its really my family is like those folks on "my name is Earl" tv show. I just seen to be the butt of alot of jokesin alot of thesescientific circles.
