On the "50 minicountries" argument, how many people know what is going on outside their state? Outside their immediate region(Northeast, West coast, South, etc)? I know that there were some tornados across the midwest this weekend, and that's about it for outside my state. We have an apathy about our own goings on too, probably because the media gives us so much bullshit sensationalism about Scott Peterson and Kobe and whatever else is selling newspapers that we don't have the energy to look past our own front door.
