Subject: RE: BS: Geographic Satisfaction.
I was so excited when I moved to Hilo, on the Big Island of Hawaii, and stood by Hilo bay imagining all those sailors singing "John's Gone to Hilo" as they came into port. Then I discovered that the "Hilo" in those shanties was actually "Ilo", on the north coast of Peru. Oh, well...

Aloha,
Mark
