AngelsNAirwav3s 09/11/17 2:11:56 PM #1:	I heard someone call a non-southerner a Yankee and I thought it was pretty funny. What constitutes a Yankee these days? Just people from the North East like it was in the Civil War era?

K181 09/11/17 2:20:28 PM #9:	To foreigners, a Yankee is an American. To Americans, a Yankee is a Northerner. To Northerners, a Yankee is an Easterner. To Easterners, a Yankee is a New Englander. To New Englanders, a Yankee is a Vermonter. And in Vermont, a Yankee is somebody who eats pie for breakfast. E.B. White --- The poster formerly known as Kakarot181: July 2, 2002 - March 14, 2012.
