I'll creep along with you rr. One town that alomst "called" Hardiman was Gallipolis, Ohio, a lovely southern Ohio river town. I always wondered if there was a Dudopolis also on the search track. Or if in Gallipolis the police force was all female, and thus in Dudopolis they'd all be men.They say in Gallipolis it's pronounced "GAL-p'leece" but I bet Dudopolis is Doo-DOP-o-liss. And I bet they do bebop there, not doo wop, just to be ornery.
