Wow! I guess you did.

Now, you see how desperate I am to establish these contacts before I make the move , eh?

I can't thank you enough for helping me out!

I realize being from NY will not help me much to start and I don't plan to introduce myself leading with the "we did it like this up north" talk.
I'll spend however it long it takes proving myself if I must.
Hopefully, they'll look upon me as an upstater better than they would someone from NYC.

No problem. And thanks for letting me know you're the same person. Now, I don't have to find you a second time on facebook.

Now check your private messages.

IMO, one of the biggest use of a misnomer of which most people in this country are not aware.

Look at a map. Anyone who does not live in one of the five boroughs or on the island conveniently refer to themselves as "upstaters" to avoid the connection with the city. Hell, I've even heard folks from Yonkers refer to themselves as upstaters, at times.

In most areas, to be an "upstater", you would live in the Northern half of the state. In NY, you can live on the Southern border and still be an "upstater".
