    Non-compatible, if you prefer, then.
    I was just so shocked to see a wordsmith such as y&#39;self use a "word" like that.

    Was that intended as some sort of insult.... you&#39;ll have to try harder my friend. [/b][/quote]
    These days, who&#39;s to say what&#39;s correct? I have heard both "uses" legitimized as high-end Ebonics.

    Incompatible? Yes, I would have thought so, but....

    I catch myself saying "ain&#39;t" quite often, also.

    "Hoosier" is certainly not a slur, is it? More a statement of "plain" fact.

    Isn&#39;t Indiana just the "Lower" Lower-Penninsula?

    I love Indiana, though I must say, I spend too much time traversing it in a North/South fashion; I would love to have a reason to try an East/West jaunt-alas, I haven&#39;t one.

    Where exactly are you, if you don&#39;t mind?

    "Ain&#39;t" is perfectly acceptable in my mind.... but unpossible just sounded uncorrect&#33;

    You didn&#39;t say Hoosier.... you said HOOSIER&#33;.... which appeared to mean something....
    • I don&#39;t know exactly what.

    Why? It&#39;s all pretty much the same.... &#39;cept for the southernmost parts.... when it starts to get hilly.

    Near Richmond.... that&#39;s east-central.... near the Ohio border.... off of I-70.
    I live in the country.... south of town.
