Great article about the soul of a common, regular southerner. As i read the comments I see a lot of hell hacking directed at Tennessee and Florida. I've lived in Florida, I now live in Tennessee and am trying to return to Florida. But here is the problem. Tennessee has become too expensive because of people from California and New York moving here and driving up real-estate prices. In trying to return to Florida it is the same problem. New Yorkers and Californians moving here in droves. If you hate the south so much why are you moving here?
