Well explained, David!

Yes, Jonathan has this view of this part of the South as being full of  
toe-picking, barefoot tobacco-spitting hillbillies... wait, that's  
exactly accurate... oh no!

Actually, Nashville is a funny place in that respect; I can go 10  
miles, maybe even just 5, and find people living in shacks out in the  
woods, living true to the old stereotype of hillbillies--there are  
still people up in the woods in northeast Tennessee making moonshine,  
for example.

At the same time, as a city of over a million people in the metro  
area, Nashville is a pretty cool place; we have world-class musicians  
of every stripe, not just music; Stevie Winwood lives here, Cheryl  
Crowe, many other from the rock world... Vanderbilt Med. Center is one  
of the finest medical schools and hospitals in the country; Nissan's  
intl. headquarters is here; in addition, we have probably a dozen  
colleges within 25 miles of here, and a truly excellent symphony. And  
of course, there's ME!

But...

The old southern Nascar-loving big-truck redneck tobacco-spitting  
mentality is alive and thriving, unfortunately... as part of the Bible  
Belt, there is a church on every street corner--there are at least 8  
churches within 5 miles of my house.

And we have the Tennessee Titans!
