And Midwesterners aren't the only ones who say "pop" instead of soda or whatever. People in Oregon and Washington say that too (I grew up in Oregon).
Linguists, however, seem oblivious to that, as well has to how many different parts of the country say "crawdad" (also the Pac NW). It's not as isolated as some people think!
Good luck with the book, and with gaining a second son. :D

You instantly get points for this. (I am from OH and currently in CO where it's "soda". @_@) I remember you, but not this part. Hee.
Also, I like the way you arrange your writing. Your Ohioan status is not the only thing I noticed. xD
