Dan, you gotta admit -- there are advantages to living way the hell up here. All of Michigan's Upper Peninsula has had the same area code, no changes, since day one of area codes, back in the early 60's. We've got about 1/3 of Michigan's land area -- and about 350,000 or less people.
"Come vacation, spend your money, go home -- it's too cold for you to live here" -- our motto.
