Those who were in school at Western Kentucky State College in 1960 may remember, and may have been stranded in Upton, Bonnieville, Park City, Elizabethtown, and Bonnieville and will want to take part in this reunion, now being organized.

Mike Watson: Oh, for Names, Places and Pronunciation! Update for Great Wooded South Lexicon, B.J. Fudge, Proprietor: Clarifying pronunciation of Uh-dair County, Cuh-well, and the real name of By Mike Watson The Great Wooded South submissions have been less than a trickle of late, and they are missed. There is much to learn, one might say "a right smart bit," from the techno-jaw sessions. When reading CM, which I do daily, I often see items that appear to come from submitters "from off." Then there are items from folk who don't adhere to the local "letter of the law" concerning place names. Now I understand that our tongues do not wrap 'round some words as they should; therefore, creating words that do not, as such, exist here. I'm certainly not a purist, anyone who hears me speak knows that! However, it does pain me considerable for the same to appear in print.
