I'm no longer a Californian... kind of hard to say it aloud in the
company of Californians ... or so I discovered while in San Francisco
recently.  ;-)  They say I will always be "Californian" but I kind of
laughed because those "northerners" have a thing about those
"southerners" ... and now!??  I'm neither???  Well.... it's a bit of
silly California political humor.

Some people may not know of a simple way to distinguish a northern from
a southern Californian.  (Don't tell I told...)  If you ask directions
of a northerner, he'll say, "take 5 to 580 to 80 to 101" .... however,
the southerners will more than likely say, "take the 5 to the 580 to the
80 to the 101" ....  So if you want to fit in in one region or the other
and you're a tourist ... now you know how to sound like a "local"!  ;-)

Anyway, I'm now in southern Nevada where the majority of people living
here are from someplace else.  So nobody carries on about how to give
directions.

So, what does all this have to do with dentistry? ... nothing really
except that dentists live here too.  ;-)

Yes. Likely I misunderstood what you meant.  Happy New Year.
