James Fischer stated: "Weslaco TX is at 26 degrees North latitude, and Miami
FL is at 25.92 degrees North, so the only part of the US 'South' of Weslaco
is the Florida Keys. Weslaco is so unlike the bulk of the US that they even
grow sugar cane there."
Just to remind folks who may have forgotten, Hawaii (19-22 degrees N) has
been "part of the US" since 1959, and is considerably farther south than the
Florida Keys.
